2014 140/365 Lilac

Oh, man! I love lilacs. Growing up there were two huge lilac bushes outside my window and I used to love the scent just wafting into my bedroom. I need to remedy the fact that I no longer have any blooming lilacs in my yard! This beauty was shot at Yale Marsh Garden.

My little untended place in the ether...



So you've wandered the web and found my little place in the ether.  My Midlife Creativities was a creative endeavor from long ago.  Sadly, many of the links to my photos broke when I changed our Flikr settings to private after a creepy encounter on that site.  I didn't realize the ramifications for this one.  In any event, each year I have to decide whether to renew the domain name and keep this place here, or just let it go...  For now, feel free to browse around and check out some of the photos from my years of 365 photo projects.

Sanctuary, 3

Om, bhur bhuvah svah, tat savitur varenyam, bhargo devasya dhimahi, dhiyo yonah prachodayat. ~ Gayatri Mantra

My favorite version of this is sung by Petros & Friends and you can hear it on Spotify.  If you like it, purchase it on iTunes or elsewhere.

May the Divine Light illuminate my mind and allow me to be a reflection of that light back into the world.

Putting in a plug for one of my favorite online yoga sites: Ekhart Yoga.  For me the subscription cost is worth every penny.  Esther does offer numerous free classes as well.

Post trip to Rhode Island for restoration of the spirit, I've carved out some space in our bedroom for yoga, meditation, and reflection.
