WHO I REALLY AM

I am a tiny tiny girl and I live on the leaf of a very nice tree in New York City. So tiny am I, that the sun cannot find me. All my life I wait for a beam that would light a path for my emergence from my hiddenness.

What is interesting, is that the leaf I live on is a leaf that never changes with the seasons. It never fades and falls in the autumn and winter. Never buds and unfurls in the spring and summer. It lives with such constancy that I can make a home upon its gift of frozen time.

Why would I make myself so tiny and come to live on a leaf? I think the significant question is, what am I doing in a world that is merely dreaming itself up? I must want to know this dream. Yes, I do. I want to play in a world of magical mirage, I think it can be fun. But I don’t know how to reveal myself in it—who I am really cannot be perceived there. I must disguise myself and I don’t like how that feels. It confuses me.

So, thankfully, in a little city park of lovely, quiet Trees I find Beings keeping the Eternity I come from alive within the eccentric illusion of Earth. In their stable silence I pause between two worlds, gathering my wits to size up the situation. To this end, the faithful leaf remains unchanging and in the course of time, I may see how to build my human from my own intent and be born into Time but aware of Forever.

It is truly an act of love that a leaf remains ever in repose to shelter and hold me while I ponder this big thing. I have been to Earth before, each time bewildered, unable to let my spirit soar and shine freely. This time, I said, it would be different, I would abide in thoughtfulness and take the time I need to find how to best keep close my real self while pretending to be something not very real at all.

I think it is important to consider how one can make good use of one’s humanness—which should be of one’s own choosing in the face of so much interference. That may be why Nature provides temples of silence for human contemplation. Trees are everywhere. Whispering. Reminding. Reassuring. Wordlessly holding each personal book of wisdom forever open and ready to be read.

It is with the silence of a Tree that I create a website and draw from my own Eternal Book.

I will not remain tiny tiny, I am a Universe inside. I am in a dream to say I am eternal. My website is my ponderings from the safety of a very loving leaf.

WHY DON’T I INVITE COMMENTS?  Well, it isn’t because I don’t want to hear from you.  I do hope my work will touch you — there is a kind of art, of poetry, that takes us out of the conditional world to our deepest self.  My creative work does this for me, I want to share it.

Wanting you to take time to consider what you find in yourself as you visit my site, is important to me because it is important to you.  Eventually, you may have thoughts to share with me, and my email address is in CONTACTS … but I can tell you this: the most truly important thing to find in this world is the Presence that breathes in silence within ourselves.  It is you who matters when spending time viewing art, not the artist.  Our life-giving imagination nurtures us through contemplation. WHAT we contemplate makes all the difference in the world; don’t let this loud culture shut you out from yourself.
