A potent, significant week for the word fish. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-81013125856599391622012-06-28T10:14:36.369-07:002012-06-28T10:14:36.369-07:00Recovering-I believe it's all there.

The artists give themselves the time to unhinge, to float, to dream (if you will) to fish for the right color, word, image, gesture-that explains or translates an experience waiting to be brought to the surface. <br /><br /> We need to sit on the rim of the well of darkness and fish for fallen light ...

Apropos of nothing but fiction I came across a Josephine Tey mystery last week and it was almost like being in love. Some fiction suits me fine. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-90611301121800890062012-06-27T14:39:10.527-07:002012-06-27T14:39:10.527-07:00Denise - Perhaps that is why it feels possible, be...Denise - Perhaps that is why it feels possible, because for some it is. Having paid attention to some recent programs on space and time and physics, it seems science now knows all things exist at once. The question is, how do we find our way there? xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-54276462061836400652012-06-27T14:36:10.805-07:002012-06-27T14:36:10.805-07:00Jayne - Thank you.

The photo does resemble tidal flats I've seen, some with very sticky mud beneath.

Lopez seems, just from cursory reading, to have a rare ability to merge with place, as though he knew what it was thinking or would say.<br /><br />I may have set myself an impossible task, for not only do I want to spend time and resurrect memories of particular places, I want the insight I could now bring. I don't know that we get to burrow into ourselves in quite that way.<br /><br />There is good, however, in what sparks us to go back for the treasure, knowing it is there, that it waits for us. No matter what else there was, THAT aspect is gone and the flecks of gold remain. Perhaps the two girl parts could go together to claim them. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-25764992189020889492012-06-26T14:07:05.811-07:002012-06-26T14:07:05.811-07:00Oh Marylinn... this is quintessential Marylinn.

It was an illusion to me. I though, at first, it was the tidal flats of an ocean or bay. Seeing one thing in another.

Beautiful post-...I will have to read this, I think. Beautiful post--at least, what I think it meant resonated deep within me. Most of the last few years has been a journey of rediscovery, of freeing myself from what was lost to treasure what I was given from so very many experiences.<br /><br />I think that each of us holds very close a child of a particular age, or a couple of ages. Me at two or so--there is a picture of me one one blog or another at that age, in ecstasy over a feather. And me, around eight. Before innocence was lost, before I absorbed the pain. Free, unfettered, most emphatically me.<br /><br />Never mind. I'm rambling. I love this post of yours and, as I said, I must read.JeannetteLShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528285846408727632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-61660965753820883952012-06-25T12:43:16.070-07:002012-06-25T12:43:16.070-07:00you bring back such memories. barry lopez also wro...you bring back such memories. barry lopez also wrote blue highways, right? i used to be such a fan.37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.com
