Happy People…Happy Dance

Happy People…Happy Dance

I saw this video yesterday and it really stirred me--I love it. Over the last month or so I’ve re-discovered how much I enjoy dancing. It’s a blast to just move your body to the music and let go of stuffy inhibitions.

Try it and you’ll see what I mean. Start the video and turn up the volume. Stand up and dance a jig. Go ahead and check it out. Nobody is going to see you and even if they who cares. I’ll bet you can’t do it without smiling.

Enjoy, in joy….Let’s dance

Rocky Mountain Clouds

Rocky Mountain Clouds

The photos below were taken during a trip to Steamboat Springs Colorado about a month ago. The white cumulus clouds seemed to be rolling across the sky like cookie dough.

I love the mysterious ever-changing patterns of clouds. One moment there is a horse and the next there is a tree…seconds later there may be a face before blending once again into nothingness.

Such are the days of our lives…we come, we dance across the sky of life before blending once again from whence we came.

Not All Plateaus Are Flat

Not All Plateaus Are Flat

Sunday I went for a drive up in the mountains to scout new bicycle routes. As I was coming back down Hwy. 7 into Lyons I noticed this giant plateau rising up on the hill in a distance. It was huge but what really struck me was the angle that it sits on.

And of course, it has meaning to me. Life is full of great plateaus. Most of them are predictably flat offering a refuge of rest and stability. And then every once in a while we encounter one that challenges our every step. The gravity of life works against us with every step.

And like all things, it too shall pass.

White Lilly

White Lilly

The flower arrangement at church this morning was really beautiful. One flower in particular caught my eye. I believe it is a Lilly but with my mistakes on naming flowers lately it wouldn’t surprise me if it was something else.

I love the close up detail. I believe the dust-like particles are pollen. There were a couple of other exceptional flowers in the arrangement too. Perhaps I’ll post them on another day.

Pure Iris

Pure Iris

I have this thing with flower close-ups. I love photographing the inner beauty at the heart of the flower. I always see Mother Nature smiling at me. Sometimes I can almost hear them speaking to me.

The shots below were taken of flower in a vase in the lobby of Columbine Unity Church in Boulder. I dropped by yesterday for a chat with the minister and noticed the flowers were calling out to me as I walked by.

I’m now in the habit carrying my camera with me almost everywhere I go so snapped a few shots. The tough part was deciding which ones to post since they all looked great.

Fire

Fire

What do you see in the pictures below? Fire of course but try to look beyond the obvious. Do you see death and destruction or do you see a hot meal? Do you see fury and chaos or do you see a warm house. Do you see despair or do you see hope?

Rapid oxidation of the wood in the process of combustion was probably not your first answer although that’s exactly what the camp fire is in the photographs. The point is that things are often more about what they represent than what they are by strict definition.

Fire played a significant role in the evolution of our species. Evidence of fire among early humans dates back nearly 2 million years and became more controlled around 400,000 years ago. Fire continues to play a role in our daily lives although we may go weeks, days, months or even years without seeing a flame.

The power and the destructive ability of fire co-exist in every moment any flame burns. Such are the days of our lives. The fire of good and bad, right and wrong, for better or for worse co-exists within us all moment-to-moment.

The Color Green

The Color Green

Green is one of my favorite colors. We see green in so many places in throughout nature. For me there is a natural feel to the color green that I find both soothing and even rejuvenating.

There is something extra special about green leaves after it rains. It is almost like they are radiating growth and health. I captured these photos a few days ago along the Boulder Creek trail just after a rain and just as it was getting dark.

Dandelions—Friend or Foe, They Come and Go…

Dandelions—Friend or Foe, They Come and Go…

Dandelions are generally considered as something to get rid of from the yard. Yet on closer look, they are truly a beautiful flower. The colors are bright during the flowering cycle and the way they transform is almost magical. Each little seed turns into a miniature wind-sail that eventually launches to discover its own destiny.

Such are the days of our lives. We are born and our flower opens to the sun of life as we grow. Eventually, we leave our home to discover our own world—a cycle that repeats itself over and over again.

Dandelions will always come and go and we can decide if they are friend or foe. Regardless of which perspective we choose, the beauty of the dandelion endures.

Have a wonderful day.

Showing Homes, Flowers and Buds Alike

Showing Homes, Flowers and Buds Alike

I spent the day with a client today showing homes in some of the nicer regions of Denver including Bonnie Brae, Cherry Creek, Washington Park, Congress Park and Highland Park. Everywhere we went there were beautiful budding trees and flowers. It was some of the most vibrant buds and flowers I’ve seen yet this spring.

The photos below are representative of what we saw. I am not sure what the white color bud is but the tree was full of them and incredibly beautiful. These trees seemed to be more in Cherry Creek and Washington Park. The flower was in Congress Park. It was a beautiful day out with the sun shining bright and warm. My client and I were enjoying seeing the buds and flowers as much as the homes.

Coy Ponds at The Self Realization Fellowship Center in Encinitas California

Coy Ponds at The Self Realization Fellowship Center in Encinitas California

I took the photo below at the Self Realization Fellowship Center, also known as the Hermitage, during a trip with my wife Hannele two years ago. The Hermitage was established by Yogananda in 1937. He lived at the Hermitage for many years and wrote the spiritual classic, ‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ during his time there.

There is a beautiful meditation flower garden on the hillside and along the cliff’s edge overlooking the Pacific Ocean. On the hillside in a shaded region are a beautiful set of coy ponds. The fish are huge and move about so elegantly in the water. It’s truly a magical setting. We enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing time just sitting by the ponds and watching the fish for a while. Just being there was like a form of meditation.
