Language is shore,
whatever sea includes,
will hit the shore.” Rumi

These photos were taken before we had a few days of much needed rain. There was no flooding around here but I saw video of devastating mudslides in the fire-damaged areas around Malibu — in addition to a medium-sized 3.5 earthquake in the same same general vicinity.
Today was super sunny and warm, a perfect time to spend hours in the garden cleaning up from the storm and getting the raised bed ready for spring planting.
I haven’t had any visits from my coyotes or bobcats in about a month and I’m not sure why. Hopefully, they’ll return soon because I miss my animal family!

The Moon said to the stars :
Do not look at my dark side
for it is unseen by me
and unworthy of Love.
And the stars said :
I see your darkness and light
and love your contrasting nature.
Would it be love if I only loved
the half that reflected my shining?
At a distance you only see my light,
come closer and know that I am You.
Words by Rumi

I wish that I could show you,
when you are lonely or in darkness,
the astonishing light of your own being.
— Hafiz

“I know you’re tired but come, this is the way…” Rumi

It may look like a hot and dusty trail, but I think it’s paradise. Let’s explore this path together.
This is a wonderful day.
I have never seen this one before.
