TODAY'S PHOTO -
table set for 8 in the atrium of a hotel.
As we walked around the 5th floor indoor balcony of the hotel
where we were visiting family this weekend, I glanced down, right
onto the Sunday buffet brunch that was being prepared and eaten
at a couple of tables. I was immediately intrigued with many of
the images, the patterns they made and the contrasts with the
patterns in the rug and the lines on the floor. See FULLER
VIEW.
I chose this particular image for its order, patterns, repetition,
rhythm and starkness. It could be almost anything. Sam, at a fast
glance, thought it was a sun dial. It also, for me, has the feeling of
a clock or perhaps a giant watch with all of its precision
parts.
For the writers among you, who is expected at this table? What
is being celebrated? And, I notice, there is a wider opening at
the front of the table. Who or what will be coming in there?
As I was writing today's issue I read an email that it is my Scottish
friend Maria's birthday. Maria is one of our avid supporters who
sends in comments from time to time. Friday our younger son turns
40 and his wife becomes 40 on Monday. I am therefore dedicating
"Table for 8" to them and to all June birthdays and
celebrations. Have fun.
READER COMMENTS ON THE LAST ISSUE - Issue
111
Very funky sunrise - those wisps of clouds or mist or whatever
it is, is spooky!" Debra Schanilec
Interesting response, the "spooky." Although I said
I was in awe of the photo, it was the experience of the sunrise
whose colors were actually quite different from what came out
in most of the photographs. I suspect that this is because I was
focussed on the sun. To get a feel for the colors that I saw,
click on BLURRED
SUNRISE, a photo I took while the car was moving.
"One of the clouds kind of looks like a cat's head to me.
There are even 'markings' where the eyes might be. I can't figure
out what they are. Birds??? Just dark edging on the clouds? They're
too high to be the plant that's at the bottom of the photo."
Mary Gray
It's possible that there are still some faint lines remaining
from the telephone wires that I digitally removed, though I thought
I got them all out.
"Sunrise on Hagen Ranch Road looks, to my eyes, as a lava
flow down the mountainside. Guess I have too many volcanoes on
my mind since I just got back from Hawaii. Spectacular colors,
it can be anything your mind's eye makes it." Toby Blender
I love all of the different perceptions and perspectives.
Thank you for sharing yours.
TELECLASSES
being Offered by Friends of Picture to Ponder
LAST CHANCE for TAPPING THE TRANSFORMATIVE POWER OF ANGER
4 Sessions, starting tomorrow, Thursday, June 2 at Noon, EST.
This hour class on the phone will be led by Adela Rubio who is
also a masterful facilitator. She states:
"Remember the last time you were angry . . . How would your
life be different if you could access that energy to inform your
actions? What if our bodies, in their immense intelligence, were
trying to stir us into awareness and that awareness was information
about our passion. See what is happening when you
are gripped in the throes of anger, recognize what is simmering
beneath the surface, and step into the power that is awaiting
to be accessed."

POWER OF ANGER
