Stillness

"Out in the wilds I had learned to beware of abrupt movements. The creatures with which you are dealing there are shy and watchful, they have a talent for evading you when you least expect it. No deomestic animal can be as still as a wild animal. The civilized people have lost the aptitude of stillness and must take lessons in silence from the wild before they are accepted by it." -Isak Dinesen 'Out of Africa'

Lions, Hyenas and Mosquitos


we are getting ready and excited.

The Call

I went up to the mountain
Because you asked me to
Up over the clouds
To where the sky was blue
I could see all around me
Everywhere
I could see all around me
Everywhere
