… have you seen the movie “The Holiday” with Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet, where Cameron’s character is haunted/plagued by the movie headlines that she helps create – well, recently I keep thinking in “Facebook” lines! Lyn Strand is….. sad …..happy…..grateful to be home….loves listening to Tony Bennett…..is rethinking her life……is thinking about hummingbird feeders and what is really important to the hummingbird…..the feeder or the real(?) food…..and what is real…..?!
I mean really is that all we are to the hummingbird – wet nurses - something to give them nourishment until they get to the ‘real’ food…..and then I go – well – how does that relate to my life – who else do I feed, until they get to the “real” food, who am I the real food to…….?
hm ….Lyn Strand …..thinks …….it’s better not to think….!
Lyn, yes, some what they call “existential” thinking going on here! What is life about? A most worthy exercise, especially if it helps us to better value life.
Which I think your pondering s here might be doing!
Our relationship with the earth is also what I read in what you wrote. Something I wish all of us would do more of! So thank you for offering this to us.
