I need to start going for my morning walks again. I went for one a couple weeks ago, but have yet to process the pictures. I need to shake out of these creative doldrums I seem to be caught in. I just don't feel like anything right now.
“i feel the wind
the wind
it touches me with a cold cold creeping dampness
it feels like i've just left the shower
but in fact I'm heading right into one
it's the rain
i look at the sky
it's not blue
not green
not grey
but something else
it's something you can't duplicate in a photo or a painting.
it's just the rain
it's the clouds
and the rain
and night sky with the city
it's the rain
i feel the first drips on my face
it's the rain
it is the rain that will come
it is the rain that is coming
it is the rain that is here for me
I went out on a coffee house crawl with Heather this evening. Saint Charles has changed a lot. It's got a much more vibrant artistic community than it had when I lived in the area. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the local artists.
One of the coffee houses was in the New Town at Saint Charles development. It is a planned sustainable community with mixed income levels and a focus on pedestrianism and environment. Narrow streets laid out on a grid and shops and residences within easy walking distance from each other, it's a great alternative to suburban sprawl. Even though it is still very much being built, it already has a warmth and a personality. If I were planning to move back to this area, New Town would be at the top of my list.
Is God benevolent or malevolent? Does God love us? Is God wrathful?
These questions are fitting to ask of some man with a flowing grey beard that lives in the sky, but they are unanswerable as to God as All.
God is not only the sky above and the ground below and all that dwells in those places. God is not only everything we can touch, God is more.
God is all creation all destruction. God is life and and God is death. God is the bleeding wound and the passionate kiss. God is the roar as well as the silence.
God is all beliefs and doubts. God not just the concept of heaven and hell, but the concept that there is an above and below. God is the ideas we think as well as the air we breathe.
God is all emotions. God is all love and all hate. God is all benevolence and all malevolence. God is all wrath and all forgiveness.
God is our mathematics and our law. Our fears and our courage. Our arts, our poetries, our languages and the metaphors behind them. The truth as well as the lie.
God is energy and matter. God is the motion of the falling rock as well as the rock that falls.
God is the Happening that is the Becoming. God is what was, will be, and has been. God is even that which is not, has not been, and will never be; if what is not, has not been, and will never be is but thought.
God is the All of Everything, the Universe of Universes. This is why there can be nothing greater than God. No threat needed, no coercion. There can be none greater than All that Is, because anything else is simply part of the Everything.
