A Sunday Thought...

reminiscing about summer and this park I would often visit - just me :)

 Since everything is but an apparition, perfect in being what it is, having nothing to do with good or bad, acceptance or rejection, one may well burst out in laughter.

Once in a Blue Moon...

 

Camping in Algonquin Park, Night one -

 too late to canoe to our final destination

our sacred hidden campsite along the side of the road

we set up I turned in early - in just a few hours you approached me,

 

Like a midsummer's night dream, you woke me

you took my hand you had something to show me

we tip-toed the path right down to the beach it was so close...

 

and there we stood in the middle of the night

so quiet except for one lonely bird chirping

for this blue moon was so bright, it was practically daylight

 

translucent lake we could see right to the bottom

 on the sand we danced so closely

Thank you for waking me I whispered

 

Until we meet again blue moon...

and do you remember what we sang ever so slowly?

I'll hold her close to me

So I can plainly see

her blue eyes shining

in your moonlight tonight

Memories

I came across an old photo today and got to thinking about that ol' saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" and thought I would start a regular post called "Memories" !

Circa 2009 - Laughter Circle
 

Tree Planting in Northern British Columbia.
Tree planting is done virtually camping and working in the middle of nowhere along logging roads.  We would work 4 days on and get one day off in the nearest town. This was one of those nights off. Our crew went to a park in town and decided to have a "laughing circle". (this was before I had ever heard of "laughter yoga" which is quite similar!)

One person begins "ha"
the next person "ha-ha" ...then "ha-ha-ha"..and so on!
Well let me tell you this, it doesn't take long before everyone is Howling with laughter. There's always that one person with the craziest laugh that just encourages everyone else. Your abs hurt from so much laughter, tears streaming! I can't remember how long this went on for but I do remember thinking how creepy it may have been for a passerby, hearing this ridiculous obnoxious laughter coming from the darkness at the local park.

Laughing is the best, I believe in those moments of laughter our bodies and mind release any tension they've been holding , and great healing can take place. xo!
