What I found out today. o87


To be honest it's more about the learning process. It's not so much of actually learning one thing, it's about taking the process as a reward. It's about daily magic. About juggling things, words, cups, books, fragrances or post stamps. All those things that mean something to you -- parks, films, lakes, hugs, coffee cups and books on life; ideas, dreams, phone calls, flowers; memories, planets, stars, drawings, clumsy cats, candles, chewing gum.... It's all about the ability to put all the things into days and into hours of those days. It's about balancing, about how you connect smell to a memory and water to hand; connect dream and sleep, tea and sugar, night and fear, evening and longing; it's about seeing the shadows behind the things and to see all that empty space where you can scream but would never hear the echo.
Sometimes I am trying to learn to bring things into the surface and to measure time in smoke, coffee cups and people in the queue's; in book pages, pavements, car speed or movies.

It's when you learn not to feel wind while pretending it's longing and not to feel pain thinking that it's anxiety.
Daily magic. Daily spells.
You don't know what the word means but it materialises.

According to Wikipedia, "A pentacle is an amulet used in magical evocation, generally made of parchment, paper or metal, on which the symbol of a spirit or energy being evoked is drawn." The five pointed star is one of the most well-known symbols in witchcraft and wicca, and carries many different powerful meanings. This symbol is an excellent way to bring energy to your book of shadows and keep it there, whether you need the energy of protection, wisdom, or more!

Tea and sugar combine well,
and I am not saying that because I read it or heard it somewhere ;-)

There are many things in life that you must learn over and over again. Like walking. And somehow in those moments you don't really care you've done it before, it comes to you again and it feels as exciting as it was before. Or even more! Even Hemingway said, " All my life I've looked at words as though I were seeing them for the first time. " There is always more than meets the eye. There is always more than we dare to admit. And it's amazing. Amazing to challenge your own limitation and your own walls (either way if they are walls in or walls out). Amazing things happen to you when you let them happen. When you walk right into the room full of unknown people and don't feel fear. I am learning to accept chaos. (Although I am not entirely sure whether it accepts me.) I have learned lately that any kind of fear might be just worthy to walk straight into. It's like playing a computer game only not being as reckless! Although I dont think that death is th

When you decide to do something brilliant, profound and simply amazing and everything is going smoothly, what is that moment when you start wondering -- where is the catch?!. There must be something. Where is the dude you call Murphy with his laws?!.... Or maybe, just maybe, things can go smooth...?!.

There was a time in my life where I learned a very important lesson. There was a time I learned that by loosing everything I had so much more left. So much more to see, to treasure and to be. I was remembering today those days when we were once kinds, when we use d to build up some amazing things out of any simple daily objects and it would make us happiest people in the world. We would build castles, space ships, even countries and new galaxies and then once mother would call for dinner we would as easily dismount it all again to be ready for something else next time. I wonder, wasn't it much easier then to learn same lessons of letting go. I don't remember much of my childhood. Probably since the time they cut my wings but I do remember that then it was so much easier to who you really are in that moment -- a performer, Cleopatra, a pilot of a space ship, a hunter, a doctor, a princess... even if until dinner time or for a moment. And therefore I keep remembering that growi
