When I return from adventure, and when I’m integrating experience, I often start with images. They offer path to words to speak and some not to speak.
I love these images from the last five days on Sointula, celebrating friends in wedding ceremony.
The forest teaches. It reminds me of connection. It reminds me to pay attention to how and where I step. It impresses with its age. And with its generosity of life growing and greening.
The figures in the forest also teach. Of art. Of mystery. Of pointers and guides. Of projection. Of longing. Of wonder.
The shoreline with distant vista teaches. Of edges. Of what lives far away. Of distant dream that compels. Of things seen and unseen.
What a gift to adventure. To learn and to integrate. To form and remember community. And self in community.
