The well has run dry. The words no longer flow. The parchment is pristine with not an ink stain to be seen. No penchant for words. No pent up passion. No predilection for pretentious prose.
Minutes flow into hours, hours form a day, gathered into weeks, with no real delineation to be made. A seamless tapestry, of dissimilar events. Indelibly etched upon my soul yet inexplicable and invisible upon the page.
Sunrises and sunsets. Tropical downpours and bright sunny days. Old friends gone silent in a fit of pique. New friends and old stories retold. Lost memories reemerge as light shifts from one scene to the next. A vague feeling that something else has been misplaced or set adrift in the vastness of time.
With plodding and relentless determination, time marches on. With or without our appreciation or approval. I seem to remember the soft yet persistent whispers of a muse. Perhaps I am mistaken or confused. Sitting here as I am, gazing out the window. My eyes are lifted skyward. My heart sores at the same moment my mind voids. Leaving me contemplating, nothingness or perhaps nothing at all.

You know you could just keep wandering around and posting great photos!
Yeah... what Lloyd said!!
But YOU do what YOU need to be doing... and know that it's quite all right to seemingly DO nothing. It's called BEING a human being. Each of us never gets to just BE enough.
When you’re quiet and just BE-ing you’re actually in your SOUL rather than your chatty, time-oriented personality. Most folks think the “personality world” is normal when in truth being in your SOUL is the most natural state of existence. There is no T-I-M-E. That’s why butterflies refuse to carry watches… or cell phones.

Someone new, and an interesting perspective. I do enjoy just BEING , but at times like this I feel guilty, too. All these wonderful people keep clicking on my page, and I have nothing new for them. I feel like I'm becoming that butterfly. No watch but still have the cell phone, incase I need my wife to come rescue me on the trail.

I'm hoping to go wandering somewhere new but events and weather have not cooperated of late.
