Day 28...City by the River

"In My Dreams of This City I am Always Lost."

Margaret Atwood

Day 27...In The Garden

"Every Flower Grows Through Dirt"


                                          Laurie Jean Sennot

Went for a walk in the garden tonight, and engaged all my senses!

Day 26...The Covenant and The Chakras

It never rains forever.

Day 25...Urban Waffles

"You should eat a waffle.  You can't be sad if you eat waffles."

                                                                                                                               Lauren Myracle

In S.E. Minneapolis, the most delightful waffles are served, and you can get them with Dogwood coffee.  Love me some Black Waffle and Coffee Bar!

Day 24....Twin Cities

“A multitude of people and yet solitude.” 

Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

Day 23...Prince Roger Nelson, RIP

"Be glad that U r free
Free 2 change your mind
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime
Be glad that U r free
There's many a man who's not
Be glad 4 what U had baby, what you've got
Be glad 4 what you've got"

So many good die young.  I loved him.  And I'm glad he left so much behind to remember him by.

Day 22...Twilight City

"I wonder about silence, Also about Darkness.

I love the idea that city lights are a conspiracy against higher thoughts."

                                                                    Terry Tempest Williams

Day 21...Clouds

"Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or 

usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky." 

Rabindranath Tagore

Watching the sky around me this evening as I was "trying" to watch a soccer game was an incredible experience.

Day 20...Rainy Streets

When life throws you a rainy day, play in the puddles!

I love thunderstorms, the sound of the bellowing thunder, rushing rain, the smell of worms, and especially the way the city seems clear and reflections happen.

Day 19...Soccer is Life

"Your love makes me strong.

Your hate makes me unstoppable."

                                   Cristiano Ronaldo


This day is dedicated to Tiana De Grande and MapleBrook Team Fury girls.  They had a heartbreaking end of their season, but they fought the good fight after many, many hours of hard work and dedication to the sport they love.

Day 18...Walk by the River

"I would love to live like a river flows,

          carried by the surprise of its own unfolding."

                                                                                          John O'Donohue

I'm actually a pretty go-with-the-flow kind of person generally.  I do the routine and the grind partly because I feel forced to.

Day 17...End of a Day at the End of a Week

"When before the beauty of a sunset or a mountain, 

you pause and exclaim 'Ah', 

you are participating in divinity." - 

                                                                                                                    Joseph Campbell

Day 16....In the Weeds

"Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them."
                                              
                                                                 A. A. Milne.

I've become acquainted with the weeds.  Many of them are beautiful and fascinating.  Some of them scratch and poke me.  The beautiful ones makes me sneeze.  But truly, I love the wildness of a weed.  I feel like I'm a weed in life.
