I was grumbling today about the dark and the pouring rain and then I remembered what a blessing water is…among many things it always washes off the day.Story Water by RumiA story is like waterthat you heat for your bath.It takes messages between the fireand your skin. It lets them meet,and it cleans you!Very few can sit downin the middle of the fire itselflike a salamander or Abraham.We need intermediaries.A feeling of fullness comes,but usually it takes some breadto bring it.Beauty surrounds us,but usually we need to be walkingin a garden to know it.The body itself is a screento shield and partially revealthe light that’s blazinginside your presence.Water, stories, the body,all the things we do, are mediumsthat hide and show what’s hidden.Study them,and enjoy this being washedwith a secret we sometimes know,and then not….#qotd #quoteoftheday #rumi #24Kgold #goldleaf #24K #studiolife #craypas #watercolor #kintsugi #kintsukuroi #metaphor #mixedmediaart #experimentalart #artistpov #pdxartists #pdxart #abstract #metaphor #dailyinspiration  #pdxartist #artistthoughts #water
