“Wisdom is knowing I am nothing,
Love is knowing I am everything,
and between the two my Life moves.”
– Wayne W. Dyer
As per usual, I stumbled upon this fine quote today while I was working on another post. Lovely words, and the picture I chose was from Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park.
As you ascend the Ridge, you must pass through these clouds. It is actually raining in there. And when you emerge, you find yourself above the clouds feeling Grandfather Sun’s rays warming you as you peer back through the valleys. It appears that you could simply walk across these clouds, as is the nature of Love . . .
…and self-awareness is knowing that neither matter.

That’s a good point George. Sort of deflates the poetry though LOL!

It was rather a negative thought. It all DOES matter as long as we’re here…which isn’t long.

I do like that distinction George. Our time here is short, and hopefully we will experience a bit of wisdom, and love

must look great… I still remember visiting Seattle 30 years back for a week of tech conference stuff, and gawking in amazement whenever I caught a glimpse of Mt. Rainier’s white pinnacle off above some strip mall or something… and all the locals were blase about it while I just stared dumbfounded 🙂

I don’t know how one could lose that feeling of amazement. I’d be amazed every day I saw it
