The marine layer was thick as I left home but I felt determined to find subject manner. I prefer working with light but this project is all about challenging myself. I've been in a mode of self examination and have been finding that I am in fact connecting to the moment. Progress I say, at least there are some times that feel like I am moving ahead.
The amazing beauty of the Monterey Bay surrounded my energy. I allowed the scenes that played around me just seep into my being. Nature is mystical, magical medicine for me.
Dolphin were fishing right next to the boats.
Each morning I watch the seagulls bathe. They splash and splash, flap and flap and bitch the whole time they are taking care of their morning duties. The gulls are my constant companions each morning, they are something I can rely on. I find them entertaining and constant.
Photobombed!
I find myself creeping and crawling around trying to sneak up, not startle the birds. No doubt I have people wondering what I'm up to.
Birds and squirrels were collecting nesting materials. We have ground squirrels in Pacific Grove, they live around the coast in the rocks and tunnel into the ground. I haven't been seeing them until the last few days, it must be time for them to prepare for babies. As the season goes by, people will feed them and then they get very brazen. I have turned and ran from them, I have seen them bite people who were trying to feed them. I have respect and might be just a little afraid. Ha! Right now they were timid, thank goodness.
I'm guessing it is good for me to have to pay attention to the small things going on around me. I have been fascinated by doors lately, I find that there are lots of them as I go through my images.. I guess I'm standing at a new door in life, I have my hand on the door knob. I keep trying to imagine where I'm going. Phil and I had many dreams and I think I felt like I had to make new plans for me. What I'm finding is the dreams that we had are still my dreams. Some plans and goals are formulating. I think I'm at the beginning of opening my new door.
If it is gray, I'm on the mission of finding color.
For Phil
I'm using the skills that we learned on your journey to move forward. All the plans that we made, I'm going to try to reinvent them and run. I'm making plans, forming goals and I know that is exactly what you would expect from me. I will miss you always, but I'm going to find my happiness and keep myself wrapped in your love as I do it.
