The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Promenade






“I live through risk. Without risk there is no art. You should always be on the edge of a cliff 
about to fall down and break your neck.” 

“I need, therefore I imagine.” 

“chaos: it has no plural.” 

“Memory is satisfied desire.” 

“Culture consists of connections, not of separations: to specialize is to isolate.” 

“What the United States does best is to understand itself.
What it does worst is understand others.”

“Perfect order is the forerunner of perfect horror.”

“If the Soviet Union can give up the Brezhnev Doctrine for the Sinatra Doctrine, the United States can give up the James Monroe Doctrine for the Marilyn Monroe Doctrine: Let's all go to bed wearing the perfume we like best.”

“The great wheel of fire of ancient wisdom, silence and word engendering the myth of the origin, human action engendering the epic voyage toward the other; historical violence revealing the tragic flaw of the hero who must then return to the land of origin; myth of death and renewal and silence from which new words and images will arise, keeps on turning in spite of the blindness of purely lineal thought.”

Photo of The Year 2011. Theme Day January 1st, 2012

For its simplicity

(Revolcadero Beach. Acapulco, Mx)

For its softness

(Out  of  Cielo. New York City)


For its significance!



Time - Pink Floyd

Ticking away the moments
that make up a dull day 
Fritter and waste the hours
In an offhand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your home town
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today

And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

And you run and you run
To catch up with the sun
But it's sinking

Racing around
To come up behind you again

The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older

Shorter of breath
And one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way

The time is gone
The song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home
Home again
I like to be here
When I can

When I come home
Cold and tired
It’s good to warm my bones
Beside the fire

Far away
Across the field
Tolling on the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell...



_____________


Caressing Time,
Enjoy with gratitude every new year!
