" A child within
Has healing ways
It sees me through
My darkest days
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine "

Catching the Butterfly
I was conscious of that moment of stepping into the woods and leaving everything else behind. That one instant when all the sounds of people, of traffic, of doors opening and closing, were suddenly gone, swallowed up by trees and ferns. It was like a curtain falling on a stage, and I waited for that moment every time. My heart opened just a little bit wider.

Meet Liam, an alert and aware pilot for Talkeetna Air Taxi in Alaska who flew us on a most memorable aerial tour of Denali National Park. Lucky me, I got to sit in the co-pilot's seat :) Photos to follow!

The number 7 is both deep and wise. It is not satisfied with simple explanations and surface-level information -- this is frivolous stuff. It knows that the real gold is buried deeper and won't stop until it finds it ... and then it'll keep digging for more. Asking questions, researching, listening, and sensing are all special skills the 7 uses in its search for awareness.
Though spirituality is especially important to the number 7 in Numerology, it takes a more intellectual approach to life than an emotional one. It is an analytical number that enjoys gathering and filtering through information to find answers. Still, it has a more powerful intuition than you might expect which it uses as a guide. This combination of conscious and subconscious thinking allows the mind of the Numerology number 7 to shine a light into the very deepest realms to access hidden truths.

"If we were always conscious of the fact that people precious to us are frighteningly mortal, hanging not even by a thread, but by a wisp of gossamer, perhaps we would be kinder to them and more grateful for the love and friendship they give to us." ~ Dean Koontz
be conscious of yourself as consciousness alone,
watch all the thoughts come and go.
Come to the conclusion, by direct experience,
that you are really consciousness itself,
not its ephemeral contents.
.....
Clouds come and go in the sky,
but the appearance and disappearance or the clouds
doesn't affect the sky.
Your real nature is like the sky, like space.
Just remain like the sky
and let thought clouds come and go.

another dedication on my father's day of passing.
He gave me this guitar that you see here in the year 1978.
When Michael Bagby chose the hero name Hatari, which means danger in Swahili, he made the conscious choice to BECOME the danger....It is in moments like this that he sometimes regrets that choice....

When you become conscious of your thoughts, beliefs, words, and behaviors you then have the power to transform into anything you want.
I made the decision a long time ago to only love...to emit love...and to become nothing but love.
The best decision I ever made!

This is a work by the artist Kader Attia, which he actually named Couscous.
This is also a work by a photographer who thought the work was called something else for the longest time and read Couscous as Conscious.
This is a work by a human who wakes up in the middle of the night, thinking dead people are alive and that she should call them. And that same human can't get back to sleep.
This is a work by a human who suffers, laments, thinks a lot about life and realizes this is what separates the conscious from the unconscious.
This is a work of someone who is interested in all layers of consciousness and wish her subconscious would communicate more with her non subconscious so that she knew how she truly felt about reality before she went to sleep and was unconscious.
This is also the work of someone who feels that to be conscious means one must have a conscience.
This is the work by a human who struggles with the idea that she would ever really be unconscious even if she were in a coma.
This is the work of a human who is wondering if she is actually in a coma and all of this is a very vivid presentation of how her brain is still experiencing life in a separate dimension than what we would always classify.
This is the work of magic desolation, textures, and light. Let's keep thinking about these things and realizing things about ourselves.
This is a reason why humanity might be worth saving after all.

After noting that the Edinburgh portion of the southbound Caledonian Sleeper departed from Waverley's platform 11 at 11.40pm, I checked out the empty stock movement and saw it was due to arrive from Polmadie CMD at 9.58pm, travelling as 5C11.
So, duly positioned on platform 10 to snap it as it arrived, it turned out the more pleasing shot was this one taken on platform 11 just after the loco had been uncoupled and the driver was carrying the connecting cable in hand - no doubt to save the shunter a lugging job as he moved the engine to the other end of the train ready for departure.
As mentioned the train goes forward as 1C11 at 11.40pm. At Carstairs it will be linked up with the Glasgow portion before heading south through the night with arrival at London Euston scheduled for 7.02am. The timings are relatively comfortable and on this occasion the travellers pulled into Euston 30 minutes ahead of schedule - no doubt the operators were happy seeing as the new sleeper stock was being used, on this occasion without incident, and presumably a few of the passengers were quite happy with the early alarm call too!

as one might suspect, the stair owners are the same artists who created the colorful glass objects in recent posts.

“I am more consciously and peacefully united with God’s will. I am more completely determined to abandon all care for my own interests into God’s hands through our Lady, even and especially my highest spiritual interests. I am no longer taking care of my own progress and my own sanctity because it is hopeless. I leave it to Mary’s direction, to the Living Christ within me, acting in me, controlling all that I do for His love. It is true, for the moment at least, He seems to have a much fuller control.
“All that matters is to give everything, and the quicker, the better. Fighting, struggling, rebelling, delaying make it harder, but not more meritorious. On the contrary, less. So it is fruitless to multiply difficulties and delays. Give everything and give it in the quickest possible way. All that matters is the gift. That is what pleases God, atones for sin, converts the world, and leads us into the joys of heaven even here on earth.”
- Thomas Merton (July 20, 1947) from A Year with Thomas Merton

Necessity is blind until it becomes conscious. Freedom is the consciousness of necessity.
Karl Marx
The desire of gold is not for gold. It is for the means of freedom and benefit.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please but as the opportunity to do what is right.
Peter Marshall
Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.
John F. Kennedy
No one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.
Paulo Coelho, “Eleven Minutes”
Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
Martin Luther King Jr.
People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.
Søren Kierkegaard
The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.
Albert Camus

Adrienne was conscious, but the world moved in slow motion—distorted, dreamlike. Her skull throbbed. Silence pressed against her ears. She blinked. Tried to rise. Failed. Where was she?
Reality slowly came into focus. Think! She scanned the chaos around her—twisted metal, scorched walls, debris. To her left… Kayla. Laying still. Breathing. She was bleeding. Relief surged, then vanished. Adrienne forced herself upright, staggering, dazed.
Then she saw him—Edlon. One of the Arcturians. Memory flickered: she and Kayla had been preparing to leave. Then the explosion.
She crawled to Kayla. Unmoving, but a pulse. “Kayla,” she whispered, then louder. No response. She patted her cheek. “Wake up.”
Adrienne reached for Edlon’s wrist. No pulse. But did Arcturians even have one there? She didn’t know. His skin was paler than usual—eerily so.
She cradled Kayla’s head. A gash. Panic clawed at her throat. She had to stop the bleeding. She tore a strip of cloth and wrapped it around Kayla’s head. Too loose. Not enough.
A crewman burst through the passage, skidded to a halt. His eyes widened. “Get to an escape pod! The ship is entering Earth’s atmosphere. It will burn up. No time!” He vanished down the corridor.
Adrienne’s heart pounded. She had to jump. Had to take Kayla.
Then—she remembered. The data slate. Coordinates to the reptilian sites. Edlon had given it to her. Where—? She scanned the wreckage, spotted it, snatched it up.
She turned back to Kayla—and froze.
Kayla was fading. Her outline shimmered, dissolving.
“NO!” Adrienne screamed.
In seconds, Kayla was gone.
Adrienne collapsed to her knees, staring at the empty space. Disbelief. Horror.
The ship groaned around her. Metal shrieked. Smoke thickened, choking. The floor trembled. A deafening crash as a bulkhead collapsed. Intense heat.
This wasn’t real. Couldn’t be real!
She scrambled through the wreckage, calling Kayla’s name. Searching. Hoping.
But Kayla was nowhere. Just… gone.

Just on the way back to the car park, another spot by Mrs R. The office block on the corner opposite the Lowry Theatre. Many offices left with the lights on showing the interiors... clearly the media world isn't energy conscious!
Apologies in advance to Kevin Walker for pinching one of his recent titles but it was too good not to use!
"The revelation that we have everything we need in life to make us happy but simply lack the conscious awareness to appreciate it can be as refreshing as lemonade on a hot afternoon. Or it can be as startling as cold water being thrown in our face. How many of us go through our days parched and empty, thirsting after happiness, when we’re really standing knee-deep in the river of abundance?"
