With palms together,
Good Morning Everyone,
Last night I was working on a paper concluding a course of study in Judaism and I found myself just writing as I do in my blogs. It is a mistake I think to try to consider a religious point of view as one thing or another.
The practice is to just be.
So, in the middle of writing, I composed this:
The Infinite does not speak to me,
It whispers, kisses, and hovers.
It rises thrugh my fingers
with each touch of a key
on my keyboard
like fingers touching a mirror.
there It is,..
Tactile dialogue
as words pirouette.
I think I like being lost in the wilderness of a forest where nothing has a name and everything is just there before me. It makes every touch count.
Be well.

No forests in Las Cruces. Longing for the forest may signal a desire
to finally confront some unresolved
(unnamed) issues. The forest will
not come to Las Cruces, you must
journey to it. Take "clear mirror
mind". Now go!
