was just perusing some pinterest stuff an old friend had facebooked (now that is a blog just by itself...) and was met with a list of 100 wonders of this world capped with a "how many will you see before you die". I took a look, I do travel some, and i will die some day. about half way through I decided this list was silly, it is someone else's list. I don't think I really have a list... an active volcano and lava are probably the only things I really long to see. But then I think a flower is far more wondrous than a building, no matter how large. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate architecture very much, I am just saying a man built the thing but time made the flower. Do you ever play the de-evolution game? What did this look like 100, 1000, 10 000 years ago? we see but a snippet during our short time here and yet we still observe change, for stresses abound, Some the hand of man, some the nature of things. i digress.
i observe time in nature, the soft boundaries of the living. I do not feel that with the inanimate. I only see decay marking time in man made things. This quality of time as presented in the living is not about vibration, all things vibrate, it is about the co-mingling of energy. I believe it is what is responsible for the sense of well being most everyone feels after spending time observing nature. A recognition that the world is alive and we all mark evolution together. A grand oneness. who wouldn't feel better after being reminded of that?
