the truth of flowers blooming

in poverty.

weekly photo challenge: angular

This week Xiao Yu offers a photo challenge at The Daily Post: “Not to put too fine a point on it, though this week, we challenge you to show us what “angular” means to you… It might mean the corner on which you live or the intersection of sea and sky at 180 degree angle. Angular also offers a chance to shoot from an entirely new perspective: from above, below, or even from the margins of the fray…”weeklyphotochallengeangle

May I find the Wisdom that silences the fortress of my mind’s discontent

 so I may hear with understanding

 teachings absent of greed, anger, and ignorance.

the deep desire to move on almost always robs us of our life… But quite often what is most healing in our relationships…arises out of the bedrock of being with things just as they are… When we step inside and wait, the right action…makes itself known. *
