from meredith's you:now workshop prompt this morning...
"then something happened: i found my voice, i made eye contact with myself, i wanted to take off and fly! i don't recall my first jump shot or how i documented it... but i recall how it felt. and how silly i felt. and how i laughed at myself and shook off the cloak of seriousness for just that moment and gave in to the goofy side of me that i thought i had lost long ago."
I have to admit, this scares the crap out of me. I'm already finding myself getting anxious. I have a tendency to jump way ahead of myself and then psych myself out before I even begin. I'm not ready for this!!!
I have to remind myself to breathe and to just be where I am right now.
So today, I'm grounding myself in the things I know, the familiar. The things that are comfortable...my morning rituals...making the coffee, putting breakfast dishes away, letting the chickens out, walking the boys to the bus stop.
The time to fly will come.
when you look at yourself
do you see
see yourself
as your mother did
as your father does
do you like what you see
would you like to be me
i'd like to be you
for a moment
to know what it's like
what it's like to be free
when i look at myself
i don't see me
i don't see you
when i look at myself
i'm never quite sure
no
not quite sure
who it is that i see.
when you look at me
who do you see?
The Katas Raj Temples (کٹاس راج مندر), also known as Qila Katas is a complex of several Hindu temples connected to one another by walkways. The temple complex surrounds a pond named Katas which is regarded as sacred by Hindus. The complex is located in the Potohar Plateau region of Pakistan's Punjab province. The temples are located near the town of Kallar Kahar, and are near the M2 Motorway.
The temples' pond is said in the Puranas to have been created from the teardrops of Shiva, after he wandered the Earth inconsolable after the death of his wife Sati. The pond occupies an area of two kanals and 15 marlas, with a maximum depth of 20 feet.
The temples play a role in the Hindu epic poem, the Mahābhārata, where the temples are traditionally believed to have been the site where the Pandava brothers spent a significant portion of their exile. It is also traditionally believed by Hindus to be the site where the brothers engaged in a riddle contest with the Yakshas, as described in the Yaksha Prashna. Another tradition states that the Hindu deity Krishna laid the foundation of the temple, and established a hand-made shivling in it.
The temples were visited by India's former deputy prime minister Lal Krishna Advani in 2005. In 2006, the Pakistani government began restoration works at the temples, with further improvements announced in 2017.In 2018,Pakistan issued visas to 139 Indian Hindu pilgrims to visit Katas Raj Dham.
