Timeless Beauty

"The Big Bang which initiated the expansion of the cosmos occurred some fifteen billion years ago, when there came into being all the matter and energy of the universe. Isn't it possible that the particles, the very cells of this embryonic universe were beautiful; that our mysterious world was intrinsically beautiful from its beginning? Beauty is timeless, universal and intrinsic; like the woof of a fabric it runs through every cell, every creature, every artist."
John Lane, "Timeless Beauty"

The Water of Dreams

I had a thought yesterday that dreams are a glimpse of water communicating with our subconcious. In a dream, reality is fluid and morphic. Faces, voices, personalities, and ego are all floated in the water of a dream and become something new and different, all swirling and floating to a deeper rhythm. Maybe this metamorphic process is the work of water and the quiet voice of water whispers to our sleeping senses, "be still while I do my work"
