This quote and story from which it comes from is such a great example of the power of all that yoga is.

“Ignore the story and see the soul. And remember to love—you will never regret it.”

- Billy to Seane Corn

Some other photos I took that day.

I’ve got it linked to view from here, however I strongly urge you to simply click on the title within the video which will take you to the vimeo site. There you’ll see it larger, and get all the necessary info regarding Alex Romano who did this film.

It’s 12 minutes long. click play, then pause it and go do something else for a little while it loads. Then come back, click on the lower right hand button that looks like arrows going in all four corners (changes to full screen).

I had the most amazing moment and my camera wasn’t with me to capture. In truth the camera wouldn’t have done it justice as it was both what I was looking at as well as what I was listening to that aligned to perfection!

7:30 am
Walked down to the beach from my house.
Soundtrack: One Cello x 16: Natoma by Zoe Keating

The air is cold and crisp. The sun rising, making it’s way through abundant wispy clouds.

Arrive at the beach and the waves are HUGE, and there are lots of them. A surfer riding one of them to perfection, playfully, the music was uncanny how perfectly it went with the scene. I was moved to tears with what I imagine was quite a silly smile on my face.

Continued to walk along the coast and felt so lucky to witness such a bold display of waves. They were prolific, wave after wave… all big. Spray coming off them, then eventually making their way to the rocks and crashing so mightily that seaweed and water would shoot up in the air at least 10 feet above where I was on the cliff.

Magnificent. Awed. Humbled.

An absolutely beautiful moment in time.

Thanks!

Love the styling of this. And am particularly fond of the bit of scotch tape at the bottom.

In this piece I combined a variety of pens w/various width nubs and watercolor pencils. I love that I can stash all that I need into a little backpack that I can bring everywhere, so when time allows…i’ll be ready.

He’d grabbed the tripod, his hand-me-down camera he got for Christmas and a stool. Pure concentration from the boy who’s motto is, “Why walk when you can run?!?!”

An oil painting I did in ’95. I haven’t painted in oils since that spring. Crazy!

I’ve pulled out my easel and am motivated to start again. Stay tuned…
