 " Representation of the world,
 like the world itself, 
is the work of men; 
they describe it
 from their own point of view, 
which they confuse 
with the 
absolute truth.  "

Simone de Beauvoir






























 " Nothing
 other people do
 is because
 of you.
 It is because 
of themselves. "

Don Miguel Ruiz

anxiety

 I get smaller.
 I see other parts 
of the world
 I didn't see before. 
Other points of view. 
I see outside myself
 more.  "

by too familiar 
a view.  "

" Nothing's beautiful 
from every 
point of view.  "

It was late,
the house was quiet.
Looking into a cooking pot
[ yes, it is a stainless steel pot ]
I saw the rainbow,
worlds in worlds,
and wondered
if
my camera could
show You
what I glimpsed.

Yes,
it is a pot.


Thank YOU
for looking in.

Even the briefest "hello" 
in comments
is another Gift !

                          Warmly, cloudia

  1. Oh my gosh, I have just been looking at some pretty colorful photos of what is out there in space, and my first thought was that these were ones looking through a telescope. Your photos are clever and creative and I would never have guessed. Great shots of the rainbows in your cooking pot, and you picked out more wonderful quotes.

  5. So, was dinner ready on time? "Watch the pot, and it never boils," holds true if you're being creative with the cool colors. If dinner was late, try a little less wine while preparing dinner....tee hee, Aloha, DrumMajor

  16. Hey Sis-- why does my comment- "Thank" you word show up as a link? I also noticed it on several other blogs and Charles "window" did the same thing? Is this something I can change- a new form of Spam/advertising?

    I don't want it!
