Aprendieron de la flor y del tallo

El maestro llevó a sus discípulos a un paraje abrupto. Tras caminar parte de la mañana, llegaron hasta un remanso, un valle rodeado de montañas y serpenteado por un riachuelo que descendía de la cima y reflejaba, a su paso, las frondas de los árboles que asomaban enamorados y las formas de las nubes pasajeras. La campiña ofrecía sus colores, sus texturas y sus perfumes a los sentidos, delicias que prodigiosamente se encontraban dispersas entre tanta flor que el viento pertinaz agitaba.

Fatigados, los alumnos se sentaron sobre las piedras y los troncos musgosos y enlamados, mientras observaban a su maestro, infatigable, que arrancaba una flor. Era blanca y fragante. Él, el sabio, acarició suavemente los pétalos, como si temiera lastimarlos.

Regresó hasta donde sus seguidores descansaban, unos agotados por el ejercicio matutino y otros, en cambio, lánguidos por…

Alles ist eine Liebe … All is one love

Stella, oh, Stella

Statue of Julian of Norwich by David Holgate, west front, Norwich Cathedral

Und ich sah, dass die Mutterschaft Gottes auf drei Arten betrachtet werden kann. Die erste ist seine Erschaffung unserer menschlichen Natur; die zweite seine Assimilierung der Natur – aus der die Mutterschaft der Gnade hervorgeht; und die dritte ist die praktische Verwirklichung der Mutterschaft, wodurch sie sich durch die gleiche Gnade in endlose Höhe, Breite, Länge und Tiefe ausdehnt. Und alles ist eine Liebe.
Juliana von Norwich,Revelations of Divine Love(Offenbarungen göttlicher Liebe)

****************************************************

… I saw that the motherhood of God can be looked at in three ways. The first is his creation of our human nature; the second his assumption of nature – from which stems the motherhood of grace; and the third is the practical outworking of motherhood, as a result of which, and by the same grace, it spreads out…

Poem – Winning a War With Time

NANMYKEL.COM

NAN

87

And time’s short

She might not remember

Today, tomorrow, or a minute from now

Something important for the next generation

A central tremor waves the lines of each written letter

But she’ll never surrender

Just hold down the fort

condo 1004A

Stockpile the ammo!

Half a dozen pens and pencils

Between the bed sheets

Notebooks and tissues

Magazines and books afloat the waves of the unmade bed

A trail of trailmix down the hallway

fiery passion

And a zest

Words of wisdom are held captive on the page

Waiting to be released

As each one of them is read

And that’s how you win a war with time

While sitting in bed.

Indirect Dialogue?

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

      Ok, experienced fiction authors, I need your help, please.  I just found a random note in my research notebook from back in 2013, about a challenge that I must have seen somewhere, and found interesting, but needed more time to meditate on it, and then forgot:  start with the antagonist asking the protagonist, via indirect dialogue, an emotional question while acting on the setting, leading to a surprising reply via some different part of piece of the setting.  Tell me, readers, can anyone even think of an example of where this has happened or been written?  Something like a magical world in which the setting is able to react to characters’ thoughts or emotions immediately comes to mind, but no examples of such actually spring to my memory.  And also, what, exactly, is indirect dialogue?  It must be some form of not summary narrative, but of some…

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Tudo aquilo que é momentâneo, não decide o seu destino. A vida é isso; é esse grande quebra-cabeças compostos por várias etapas. Cada uma representa o seu momento, o impacto, as emoções, os amores, prazeres, dissabores e a sua ambição maior, viver. Pois bem, o que você tem de bom para contar para si mesmo? E qual o obstáculo, digo ” o aspecto crucial que você considerar como a maior dificuldade que precisa vencer? Ironicamente, o movimento da vida, por vezes, nos tira da rota, e por conta disso, a gente se isola, se acha incapaz. Na verdade, dentro desse ” isolar-se ” tentamos nos proteger, ou ” se guardar do mundo” como queira. Está em paz é precioso. Todavia, é indigno para o ser humano viver como um pássaro no ninho. Claro – é um lugar quentinho e confortável. Mas, eu insisto: a sua força reside no insistir, repito:…
