Now and Zen
... a brilliant idea comes along
It's the thought that develops the action that leads to the result
When a thought is birthed and a great idea is formed
there are at least another six identical such ideas born anywhere in the world. The one that lives and makes a name for itself is the one that runs the race to the tape
There is the near at hand, the middle distance and then the journey to the stars.
You may know you have the rocket but can you guarantee you have the fuel to reach them?
When the staff broke the sod, roots took hold and sacred tendrils coursed through the landscape in search of holy springs. Found, Avalon
blossomed and grew in stature. Legend became larger than life itself, assuming proportions that coloured its intent ex origo. Beyond the moon, the sun... behind the sun...infinity
It's a poor eye that looks to see its feet beneath and a fool that looks behind.

So(w) what you see, from the depth of your heart, is a thing of beauty. It needs nurturing, watering and allowance to blossom into fullness.
What seems barren may just be uncared for...what seems bursting with pomp and circumstance may just be vanity dressed up as life...what makes no sound but calls you anyway may just be your key to freedom.
Let nature tell you her story. Listen and you will recognise your life's path
Here comes the Sun King....
One man has dedicated his life to honouring the sun that has shaped all life and is recognised through all cultures down the ages.
Valery Lipenkov, who founded and has steered from the bow for over 10 years, the unique Museum to the Sun in Akademgorodok, Novosibirsk, Siberia in Russia.
He has collected various images of the Sun - embossments, embroideries, carvings from various materials, etc. - totaling over 350 objet d'art. Each image has its unique character and, most certainly, its history.
The basis of the museum was a private collection of images of the Sun and Sun gods of the ancient civilizations, made mostly by Valery in wood following archeological findings.
