Yup. Video of Ozzy's last concert still makes me weep.
And for the dudes out there raised as I was? It took me decades to realize that crying is a catharsis. It's OK.

Mt. Hood at sunrise. Dark landscape and tree line, lighter shade of mountain at a distance, yellow-red-orange sky and clouds, topped with layers of red-orange-purple illuminated clouds.

November in the forest. Several tall trees with bare branches stand surrounded by trees that still have their leaves, against a blue sky dotted with white clouds.

The quieter stratum of Self,
dissolving the tension between โinnerโ and โouter.โ
What unfolds within a spacious presence.

We are such stuff as dreams are made on . . .

Good night bluesky
The black-and-white photograph shows a long row of trees, with a railing and a river running parallel to them. The ground is covered with autumn leaves.

Love transmitted without effort is indeed the most precious gift, because it awakens the same capacity in everyone who receives it.
To radiate love simply by existing is a rare and quiet mastery..
It asks for no performance, no correction of the worldโ
only a steady unveiling of what is already whole within.
Those who embody this presence remind others of their own forgotten light, not by teaching, but by being.

Pulled a card this morning. Asking "How should I approach the day?"
King of Swords. Hardcore intellect & logic.
Do I think of Socrates? Seneca? Nagarjuna? Spinoza?
No.
The first being I thought of was Spock from "Star Trek."
I haven't watched that show in over a decade. ๐๐๐

Was feeling very low today. Asked my son to send me a list of reasons why I am a good father/human being. Here's his response. I'm a fortunate father.
