Meri's Musings

Besides sending financial contributions  to reputable organizations doing hands-on services in the heart of the quake-tsunami-nuclear disaster zone (and don't forget the quake victims in Christchurch, NZ) I think we need to meditate on LOVE and HEALING ENERGY because ....... Well, that should be obvious. The Japanese find the chrysanthemum  symbolic of the sun.  They consider the orderly unfolding  of the chrysanthemum’s petals to represent perfection. Confucius once suggested they be used  as an object of meditation.   Given the devastation wrought by earth forces, I think we could all benefit  from meditating on healing for the Earth and her people. Sending blessings and pure love -- in all its perfection -- can only help.

The chrysanthemum photos were just too tempting. "Wallflower" © 2009 Meri Arnett-Kremian. I had to play today.  

My cold and I went out for an adventure today. I couldn't seem to leave her at home, though I've tried. I don't know why I think it's a her, but I do. It might be because she keeps urging me to eat chocolate. Whether she's a she or a he, it'll do her good to get a breath of fresh air. We went to the conservatory in Wright Park in Tacoma "Hanging On" © 2009 Meri Arnett-Kremian and were overcome by the beauty of the floral displays.

You ought to get off your butt and get prints made. She's pushy, this cold.
