I take refuge in the nurturing spirit of Guadalupe and the Silent harbor of the Buddha within.  Today, my friend Bill helped me to see the profound scar that many men from my generation carry with them in regards to the AIDS crisis in the 80’s and 90’s.  His guidance was so absolutely clear and the cleansing that took place
reminded me of the Magic that surrounds all of us.  Thank you, Bill Reiner, you are a living miracle as far as I am concerned.  Your overflowing heart is so generous.  To those who do not know Bill…he was given a 5% chance of living last May after a Pancreas attack in Buenos Aires…Bill came back.  I am reminded of some words from Rumi, "Even though you have broken your vows a thousand times…come, come yet again."

Richard has taken highschool teaching attire to a new level…what a guy.  He sent me this photo from his new computer.  He fried the keyboard on his old Mac last week before he left for Amerika…ahhh my Dear Friend!

Well, Dear Friends,
the floor in Casa Kali is finished and the tiling of the roof has begun.  I wanted to take some pictures, but I have not quite joined the 21st Century…cuz I forgot to plug in the charger device…Hey…what can I say?  Lot’s needs to happen…working, growing, loving, creating…all the usual stuff…oh yes…meditation…back to sitting…just relaxing in the nothing of Nothingness…

Benjie, my graphic designer friend came out to take some photos of the house and my work yesterday.  She posed for a quick shot…we had lots of fun and she captured a number of the peculiarities around here that I sometimes take for granted…Viva Benjie!  Viva Arte Peculiar!

…walking through the house with my computer…I took these photos…Remember Loving Kindness, Anado…Remember Thyself…..

I am a morning kind of guy…it is a quiet and glorious time for me.  I took these photos downstairs this morning.  I wanted everyone to know that Richard bought an electric coffee maker…my, how we have grown…from Electric Kool Aid years ago to electric coffee makers.  I know these devices have been around for decades…but hey…who’s counting.  I mean I have been around for decades myself, and not everyone has one of me….think about it……I had to include a photo of our Divine Cat…her name is Skookum….she is one of 6…oh and that is Cielo on my shoulder…The Queen…possibly the most Divine Creature alive…..
