White Woods and wonder

Another night walk last night in the hush. The woods were still and silent under the overcast blue moon!

I imagine myself three years from now, living in the same place, still walking in the woods at night, still getting deep insight from it.

The deer and squirrels have been very busy under the old apple trees, finding treats and treasures.

Black-Capped Chicadees smile and call to me, as I leave things in the crotch of the tree in the mornings.

I pondered about silence...

I watched the movie, 'August Rush' twice before my walk. Intense for me. If you haven't seen this, I highly recommend it.
(Seems all the movies I am watching now have to do with stringed instruments???) I also recommend 'The Red Violin' and 'Ladies in Lavender'

Yet it made me realize how strangled I am in the expressing of the music within me.
I choose silent activities; spinning and knitting are primarily silent, and can be done solitarily.
Though I have a deep love and connection to music, I play no instrument.

Perhaps I will work on changing this in 2010.
