Lately, I feel time hidden within the evident. The seed of spring has been emerging from the roan and russet contours of the winter soil.\u00c2\u00a0Each day has been like waking up to time-lapse photography; changes in the field out back have been dramatic.\u00c2\u00a0Cherry blossoms and lemon-yellow forsythia appear in the midst of diverse greenish shades surrounding.\u00c2\u00a0What’s particularly interesting about this vision is that a glow seems to come not from a diffuse grey sky, but from the budding growth and tender colors of the nascent earth, as though there is a light inversion, a kind of gloaming from within.\u00c2\u00a0Spring is radiating out, time is unfolding, and I am none other than this.<\/p>\n
Floating\u00c2\u00a0along the visual plain to a specific point in the distance, I notice what I’m doing, and in that instant of reflection, the ‘floating’<\/em> moment became old, as a new moment emerged at this shifting. A green sloping hill slightly rolls into a field of abandoned cornstalks.\u00c2\u00a0Time rolls on like the undulating earth while focus, like a butterfly, is lilting and light.\u00c2\u00a0I notice what I just did; aware of myself and my ‘doing’<\/em>, and the act of looking back<\/em> makes a periphery for an objective past, and a hollow for the emergence of a new moment.<\/p>\n During this little exercise I have no thoughts of a future, no images projected ahead, but the unrestricted and unshaped openness at the edge of the future is intimate.\u00c2\u00a0The ‘between’<\/em> of now, and the immediate past \u00e2\u20ac\u201c ‘the transition<\/em>‘ from one to the other is open.\u00c2\u00a0I am mildly amused to observe an involuntary tendency in me to gather, close out, and move on.<\/p>\n David<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lately, I feel time hidden within the evident.
