….when something serious happens…
of tragic proportion usually but not always...
…we then…
stop..
stop..
things that had been taken ….
for granted are now right in front
of our very noses…
TIME
therefore
STANDS S T I L L
nothing moves but our minds and everything is so
quiet…you can hear a pin drop….
 |
| this is the backyard pond in a neighborhood in West Norwalk , CT that i shot in the fall of 2008 |
….a loss of job…a relationship breakup…
a separation anxiety... war news ...
or whatever it is that can cause ….
one to be very attentive…with dire seriousness…
It is sometimes healthy but often it isn't…
so when it comes
….it seems to come unexpectedly…
at least as far as our busy mind is concerned…
we have not expected it in the very least…
hence, follows … shock and surprise…
that's why suddenly …
time stands still….
for now
we
suddenly
find
the time
to think
about it….
...if IT…
is a problem…
we would now dedicate
ourselves to its resolution
to the point of allocating all our energies
and resources if need be to get it done…
That's why TIME stands still…
this is the time …that we demand so much of
ourselves to worry, to ponder, to be alone…
and to be spiritual…
further..this is the time..that we find ourselves…
to be nothing but the minutest
of all the minutes…and in quiet solitude find
our helplessness in total acceptance…
for time has proven once again
our limitations as mortals…
…….there is more…
i'm thinking extemporaneously…
and i'll continue when my brain….
starts grinding again…
just something to provoke our minds…
or perhaps just to get naughty…
in some foolish sense….
that's all folks!
catch you later…

p.s.
speaking of time….Sonja Moeller
has spent great time with her sister
in Oahu and the big island in Hawaii enjoying the
exotic fruits and other produce at the farmers market
as well as meeting the locals and killing time
listening to Hawaiian music….
She is now in New Zealand
basking in the
sun and soaking herself in the hot springs of a
volcanic
part of Rotorua Lake a geothermal park...
"watch where you're steppin' lady",
there might be a sink hole somewhere…
anyway, that's our update with Sonja.
Enjoy and share us your pleasures and impressions
of your travels….
