Thank you so much, Robin for your wonderfully vivid description - it's lovely to share your bright enthusiasm. We are in the depths of winter now, and it feels as if the natural world is quietly resting - gathering strength for the spring to come. Peace and love to you. Wow – what a beautiful experience!

I was very moved by your kindness (birthday wishes) and these flower videos. So so magical. The first one brings tears to my eyes. I think I will post about the story I've written below. Thank you soooooooo much for inspiring me to remember it. ____________________________________________ Heeey Alan and Vanessa!! What a joy to see you here. Oooooh, I am just watching the time lapse rose and it moves me to tears. Do you know when I lived in the subtropics of Australia I could sit and literally watch gourd tendrils grow. One has to be very very patient and slip into a timeless state. And you have to put an object ( like a stick) a little ways away from the end of the tendril and then empty your mind of all thought and you can not only FEEL the intelligence of the tendril but you can SEE it moving toward the object you place in front of it. I will never forget when I did that. We think plants aren't truly as alive as we are because they don't move as fast as we do. But I have found them to be exceedingly intelligent and profoundly healing. Thank you both for ALL your kindness and support. You are a blessing.
