Re: Hear the Silence in NM



It's interesting that most of the world's great and enduring religions have arisen from desert peoples. I think there's a reason for that. It's easy to become mystical in surroundings such as desert and high, stark mountain lands.

I have emerged from the dusty, very dusty, desert to find my way to a
computer to say....."Namaste"..... family!

Not only is the heat during the day a "dry" heat.....its a real darn
dry cold too! I feel like some of the wild animals here, seeking a
sunny rock every morning to warm up on but only after the sun rises
over the mountain, whose shadow determines my morning rountine.

The locals, coming through, who are antler hunting, sighted a mountain
lion close by....just sitting, watching, right on the foothill where I
watch the sunsets. I guess we both know the best spots. Cool!

Been listening to the rocks. One has to get real "quiet" to hear.
The small waterfalls have much to say....each one a different voice.
I love the sound of the wind as it blows through the different trees.
The pine tree speaks the loudest!

The plants are starting to bloom for spring. The cacti here are
rainbow colored! Hippie cacti! Hippie cay yeah!

I have never watched a desert bloom! I don't think I watched anything
but TV!

I am learning to look and to listen, for sure.
Understanding what I experience is next!

Or maybe it is about just being.....just being.

No agenda, no fear, no conclusions, no demands......

Just allow.....trust.....

Luving youuuuuuuuu.........Cassie, really getting undefined....!!!
