Fri, 20 Mar 2009 08:44:41 GMT

As I sat on the banks of the Ganges, watching the sun cast its warming glow on the ending day, I was mesmerized by the hundreds of people who crossed the city’s famed, Luxman Jhula [bridge] as they finished their day. Countless people all unknown to me, but intimately known to One.

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 08:29:15 GMT

The Taj Mahal is the outside world’s idol of India. Though majestically white & beautifully carved, I saw this architectural wonder through different eyes than most of the tourists there. I had fallen in love with a different side of India than this iconic structure.

03.22.09 - he has risen - marin, ca

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 08:32:06 GMT

have you ever heard of andy goldworthy? if not, you should. he has an unique ability to see beauty inherent in the natural world and display it for the world to appreciate. he collaborates with nature to make new creations from the most simple yet extremely sensitive perspective. my roommate, amanda the cartoonist, let me borrow a documentary on the nature artist and i was completely inspired. after watching the film, i wanted to get lost in a forest sewing leaves together or stack stones along the shore only to have them swallowed up by the tide. then i looked outside at the caged trees and the concrete planters... my artistic release just doesn't belong here. i went to the mountain this weekend... i needed to get away, to search, to be still. as i sat there upon the rock, reading the last days of Jesus, i began to cry. though a story can be read again and again, sometimes the meaning seeps deeper and its Truth requires a new level of acceptance than had previously been thought... life from death, freedom from pain, beauty from brokenness. it was one of those kind of moments which i felt naked and vulnerable in the bigness of the purpose yet completely held and secure in the love for which it was done. the moment left me artistically inspired. i began gathering the poppies scattered around the hillside in the most vibrant shades of orange. i held them in my shirt like i had as a little girl picking dandelions, until my pile was overflowing. returning to the rock upon which i was sitting, i cleared out the vines and weeds from within the deep crack. one by one, i placed the flower blooms within the rock, until my collection had been exhausted. i stepped away from the site and watched the life of the flowers flow from between the walls of the rock. He has risen. He has risen, indeed.

06.19.09 - mia - san francisco, ca

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 08:24:35 GMT

i met mia one of my first weeks in the bay area. she didn't talk much then, but then again, she doesn't talk much now either. but when she does speak, there is a sincerity and guineness in her voice that is memorable and intriguing. she has a story to tell, thoughts to offer, a perspective to give. she sings and writes, she cares and gives. mia is one of the reasons i made it through this first year in san francsico. in a place that seems to care less, she genuinely does. weekly book discussion with her challenged my perspectives on life and gave me more reasons to love. but next week, she's leaving this place. it's not her, she's not it. maybe it's the city, maybe it's this phase of life, maybe it just wasn't meant to be. but whatever it is, we enjoyed the time together while it lasted. we lived the moment our paths crossed. in our last discussion together in sf, we shared thai food and scar stories. this year has been one of the hardest but i have a feeling she's about to turn the corner. as we got in the car, we saw glimmers of an incredible sunset reflecting intense shades of pink off the city windows. we drove the car up and down the streets waiting for the moment the sky would open up and unveil its beauty to us. one moment our view was held down by houses and cars and the next moment it was as if the curtain was pulled and the sky was displayed in all it's brilliance. mia let out a high shriek...i couldn't stop smiling. immediately, she kicked off her shoes and climed the fence, trying to get as close to the bigness as she could. i think if it was possible, she would have jumped into the sky's pool of pink and blue, never looking back. but instead she settled for standing behind the fence, separated from the majesty... walled off from the beauty... distanced from the hope. i know the moment was one we'll both never forget... each engaged in our own thoughts. staring off into the sky and watching night fall upon the city, we stood in silence. my friend, know that you were meant to be fully immersed in such moments with nothing separating you from the love you have to offer and the love you will receive. the walls keeping you will crumble, the stone will soften, the chains will fall. healing will come, hope will return, and love will always win.
