30 Days of Perception - Day 2
Perception is embodied:
Today, I was thinking about the some of the different senses. I passed this tree and saw the different colours and textures of the lichen and moss and the tree trunk.
I felt the ridges and the hardness of the tree trunk, I touched the lichen with its lacy aspect and then the moss, some of it was tickly to my hand and other parts were soft and spongy like little cushions. Everything felt slightly wet after a rain shower.
I also felt the breeze blowing on my face and could feel little drops of leftover rainwater falling from the leaves overhead.
There were always a large flock of seagulls waiting in the outflow of Joe's Creek for anything that might be washing out to sea.

"Am I still tough enough?
Feels like I'm wearing down.
Is my viciousness losing ground?
I see you left a mark
Up and down my skin
I don't know where I end
And where you begin"
(Discipline - NIN)

"Indem ich mich vom Tod erhebe, töte ich den Tod, der mich tötet.
[...]
Wenn ich das Gift in meinem Kopfe trage, ist das Heilmittel in meinem Schwanz, den ich wütend beiße."
(Della tramutatione metallica - Giovanni Battista Nazari)
Translation:
"I revive myself from death, and kill the death that killed me. [...]
I carry poison in my head, but the remedy is in my tail, which I bite in my fury. "
(Excerpt from: Three Dreams on the Transmutation of Metals by Giovanni Battista Nazari)
Out on the Bikes yesterday in the sunshine and came across these Springtime Flowers along the Hedgerow.

“There's much more in any given moment than we usually perceive, and that we ourselves are much more than we usually perceive. When you know that, part of you can stand outside the drama of your life.”
Ram Dass
“Only someone who is ready for everything, who doesn't exclude any experience, even the most incomprehensible, will live the relationship with another person as something alive and will himself sound the depths of his own being.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
Happy Perfect Purple Saturday!
I've brought this in tonight as it's going to be so cold. I'm going to try to overwinter it but don't hold out too much hope. At least I've got a few photos from it!

It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. Nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something.
