"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Long Shadows

"The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." Martin Luther King Jr.

We got about five inches of snow overnight creating a fresh white canvas for the long winter shadows. 

I spent most of the day tucked inside puttering and sorting things in my studio....staying bush and purposefully ignoring the news. I actually thought about Margie several times. As a woman of faith and justice...today would have been really hard for her. 

And speaking of long shadows....I was struck by this tall shadow-like silhouette of my amaryllis stem as I was passing through the kitchen.

The bulb was a Christmas gift and I was VERY late getting it started. But it has shot up quickly....and before long I'll one or two of those crazy big colorful blooms! Stay tuned!

"Trouble is in the land; confusion all around.....But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough can you see the stars." Martin Luther King Jr.
