Watching spring buds on trees in my neighborhood. Some are starting to flower. (Photo of a peach tree 🍑)
Gorgeous time of year.

The vines are consuming fire hydrants and power lines and stop signs and every gust of wind is filling the air with a delicious magnificent jasmine scent and I feel delirious and reborn and glad to be alive
!!!
Take a walk, take a whiff :-)

the passing of the seasons has got to be my favorite thing of all time since the first time i remember having consciousness. here’s my favorite tree, having finally shed for the winter. i live in central FL where we get some autumn colors in the wintertime, & at the start of January this one finally shed its leaves :D ecstatic at this bc I’ve lived most of my life in south FL, where leaves stay intact & green year round, & the seasons kind of blend into one. no greater feeling to me than knowing that the earth changes with me

Frankie cat. Rescue cat.
I have become her pet, and am not sure how. But she owns me, not vice versa.
I am masseuse, feeder, groomer, general dogsbody, servant. And all this from an avowed dog person who has spent a lifetime scoffing at the mere thought of cats and their weird cat appendages known as owners.
And now I am one of them.
Am suddenly, meltingly, doing anything to get that thrum of demand as she sits on my chest pinning me, helplessly, to the bed. The couch. The anything.
Frankie cat, what have you done to me?

That dazzling, show-offy, alpha thrust of the outer shells, yeah yeah. Seen it all before. But the lighting underneath … in the undercroft where the cars drive through … where the lone concertgoer slumps, dreams, sleeps, waits …
Now that is astonishing. Concrete made light. Intersected by the lone human - so alone - amid the busy, buzzy throng of us.
Can you see him?
So many astonishments.

Ok, it’s about a Tokyo toilet cleaner. And he barely speaks. But bear with me.
It’s a film that is luminous with beauty from a director nearing the end of his life (Wim Wenders is in his eighties.) And it says so much about what is important in life, and what isn’t …
Relinquishing complication, I think, is the key. Plus the quietness of simplicity. And the ability to cleave to a simple life - if you possibly can. And having the courage to be singular; to not care what others think of you (the ultimate freedom.)
Lessons, lessons, all the life lessons. I still think about the gift of this film, months after I was immersed in it.
I left the cinema … cleansed.
