    THE NEXT DAY THREAD - NOVEMBER

    Poem for Mr G, the master of abundantry, just to give thanks for all the energy you give.. this was written centuries ago by the wonderful Hafiz

    Join me in the pure atmospere

    I slip in and out of the Sea at night with this
    Amazed soul I have.

    I am like a magnificent, magic ocean turtle
    Who sets aside his vast wings of
    Blue effulgence

    When I crawl upon your shores
    To leave my divine seed of verse.

    Let me remain cryptic tonight
    All the way till dawn
    As I orbit God
    In this holy, ecstatic mood.

    Grab hold of the corners
    Of my luminous, tender shell
    And I will whirl for you,

    For I am covered with eminent crystals
    That I have gathered from the infinite depths
    Of love.

    Follow my tracks in the sand that lead
    Beyond thought and space,

    For I can see deep down
    That you are really a golden bird
    That needs to
    Dance

    With your spirit enraptured and ascending
    On the currents of Light ?

    On the currents of His
    Breath.

    Join me with your hands, wings, hoofs or fins
    In my sublime applause.

    Join me in the pure atmosphere of gratitude
    For life.

    I slip in and out of the Moon each night
    With a gracious ease
    With this brilliant heart I have.

    The Beautiful Friend, the Exquisite One,
    Sometimes steps from His Invisible Body
    And walks upon our shore

    So that we might see and know
    His radiant Tender Shell-

    His eminent crowns
    That are the three worlds.

    O grab hold of the hem of His skirt
    As He spins this Universe on an emerald
    Dance floor!

    Cling to the Transcendent Elements in His glance
    As the Beloved forever whirls
    His Love.

    Hafiz
    Slips in and out of God at night
    Tied to his own amazed
    Soul.

      Evening.

      Would like to report that I did indeed have a Grand Day out with Minnie we talked for 3 hours non stop. Quite unbelievable that we live within waving distance.

      Fickle - that song comes from a luverly movie called Once. Highly Recommended.

      Wavey - my depression and anxiety are markedly improved since I got a handle on the alcohol. Its a chicken and egg situation, and I really hope you find a way out.

      Has Ronnie been around?

      Am orf to tinkle the ivories, am feeling inspired....

          hi everybody .... back into this part of my life again!! You have no idea how long it takes to read a weekend of NDT postings when you are doing it on an i-pod touch!!! Very nice to see the waves to me though!!

          Lucky Minnie and Betty!! I want a MWO buddy here too!!

          Bets (and Wavey) .... is so true about the alcohol and depression thing. Even just a couple of days off the booze makes a huge difference to my mood .... not least because I'm not feeling like a useless piece of shit for having been so weak. (probably too many double negatives in that sentence but I'm in a hurry!!)

          HAd a nice weekend with all the family babies ...... but dog, I had forgotten how noisy they can be all at the same time!!!

          Had a good but very emotionally exhausting day with my brother yesterday. He has been in a bit of denial about what is happening to him. So yesterday we talked about that and what he feels like he needs to do to complete his life's journey and be at peace. We talked all day and sent a few boats sailing out in terms of people he wants to track down, talk to, give things to etc etc. I have another brother arriving from the US on Friday, and it will be nice to have another family member here to help.
          Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn

              What tha?? Has everyone slept in???
              I'm very happy that Minnie & Bets have met up...quel coincidence with the living arrangements huh??
              Tawny I watched Jamies road trip last night - found it very interesting & quite sad...same thing happening here though. I had to chuckle at the ash soup "Mmmm, ash soup innit bruvva" wonder why this hasn't taken off...ummm, it's ash soup??! Best not to try it with the dregs in the ashtray - methinks it won't be any good.
              Wavey - what Bets said is true - I didn't think I was depressed but the world does look a lot brighter without al. Anyway, preaching won't help but I wanted to say I'm here for support (not that I've got it figured by an stretch of the imagination)
              Ficks - that was a beautiful poem. Never heard of Hafiz...sounds Israeli...
              And the rest of you lot - have a splendiferous day.
              I'm off to play tennis & have promised kiddies a swim.

                You're being such an amazing sister to your brother...he's lucky to have you.:l for strength.

                And evening lil' squirrel....I guess you're all cosied up at home. I often think of how lucky I am to have somewhere to live on cold cold nights.

                    Quick lunchtime check in. Been out there since 7am - perfect outdoor working weather and I'm making the most of it before it gets stinking hot again.

                        Evening all....
                        Had a great game of tennis this morning, was much cooler today which is nice. No swim was had though.
                        I have 3 red tomatoes & ALL of them were rotten on their bottoms...I think they were resting on the splint thingy - bugger.

                                You've got Black Bess's dad there.
