"As yesterday and the historical ages are past, as the work of today is present, so some flitting perspectives and demi-experiencesof the life that is in nature are in time veritably future, or rather outside of time, perennial, young, divine, in the wind and rain which never die. - Thoreau

i love the rain .. when caught in it i decided it doesn't pay to run for shelter .. my theory is that by running we are running into more than would just fall on us taking our time ... philosophical, inner pursuits are difficult .. fraught with fears, lusts, recklessness and the desire to hide our selves .. i think it can be very discouraging at times; but rewarding for those who can be brutally honest ... i am a bit fearful at the thought of my kicking in Heaven's door.. i think knocking might get better results ;))))))))

When you have your goal set forth...nothing will stand in your way....not even Heaven.... so let it rain, pour, who gives a damn! you know what you have accomplished in life...this has some bitterness tones to it...like your state of mind is anger...which of course we all have at times.....but here, there is some unmentioned note of despair and the end....or am I getting too morose?
Always excellent Pete!
Warmly, B
