you ain't so big...you just tall, that's all

 
Why is the spring of the year so compelling?

Everything that lives must grow.
People change, we mature, we develop. Our minds and understanding expand. Our capacity to love stretches.
It is exciting to feel this growth take place. When the water pushes the leaves down the canal and the fiddleheads push up through the lilies, when the snowbirds wheel overhead in their magnificent V formation, why do our hearts lift, our spirits soar?

We are straining forward, bursting out of a shell. Life knows no standing still, no looking back.Sensations of the Ordinary

Connected is the Title of an amazing self-portrait, created by Kasey McMahon. Steel, CAT5 and other data cables form a pose resembling the woman that was the base for my youngest1's table. See "bewildering boy treasure to be made whole" post.

Speaking of bewildering boys, Florida is putting herself back on to the hot topics list..politically!
The Jebster is sneaking back. It really is a full moon! Where were you last night?

Ellen!! Hooray! So good to see you post! I saw a guy on the food channel on "Chopped" or one of those shows, from Merritt Island and thought of you right away. His food looked good too!!
It snowed here this morning. Snowed! Crud...second of May in Utah...I guess I should be used to that uncertainty by now..but I am not.

So you think you can dance?
