People are interesting. THere is an ebb and flow here.  Like the words behind the pictures it inspires growth.  Like all other things there is nature and then there is humanity.  Nature is of itself and I love it.  It fulfills, it inspires, it makes mme want to ne great over and over.  It is rivers and streams and lakes and corridors of trees.  There nature is alive, a little pocket of truth amongst an era of degredation.  We really have done a number on this world.  FRom dams to coal mmining to fracking to the curent situation in the Florida Evrglades.  We are consuming at an exobnant rate.  And it is huurtful and disheartening.  Yet there is hope.  There are those for whom nature is part an parcel of life.  It inspires in a way nothing else can.  It also is the lynchpin to a community of people who rely on it for their sustinence be it monetary orspiritual.  It is the spiritual that interests me.  What is the spirit?  WHere does it come from?  How does it thrive?  How does it continue to goow despite all the negative that seems to consume the world?  I think it is in part because of love.  Love is an elixir of faith.  It tells truth where it can and speaks in glwing voice but can be hurt if you are open.  The truth is love is ancient.  It has come about through our belonging to a tribe, to a cukltrure, to a way of being, along a line of thinking.  And if it is love than it can never be extinguished as it si the good we experience every day thats supports us.  The reenforce ment.  And there is good out there despite the pain despite the negative.  Finding in bewteen the moments the ppnts to breath and not ever let our fire be extinguished is important.  In between the breaths.  And the give good advice.  Do't open up.  And thoug people build trust I will love closed.  He has hurt me.  He will.  She will.  So i remain frozen intime a spector of what I once was yet not in love like i used to be yet hopeful of what will be in life and fishing.  I loved her fora moment and it was beautiful.  There is great love in joy, and passion and hope for renewal and a new life a new begining away from the evil.  I must do it on my own yet I can and will despite the dangers that lurk.  They remain mere fears and since there is nothing to fer but fear itself i will not fear at all.  Instead I will love wih all that is left of me with hope for tomorrow and the many days bewtween.
