To find a pearl dive deep into the ocean
don't look in fountains
To find a pearl you must emerge from the water of life always thirsty.
Rumi

A Virtual Filing Cabinet
Welcome to my patch of cyberspace.
Please, take a seat, can I get you a cup of virtual tea?
I can offer everything from dandelion chai to bancha and back or whatever you happen to find in your cupboard.
My name is Talisa, I am an artist and educator. This is an on-line archive of stuff that interests, entertains and informs me, with links to relevant sites (linkbacks are found in the title of each post) and postings of my observations, insights and artworks. Thanks for dropping by.
"Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, you are unlikely to step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume there is no hope, you guarantee there will be no hope."- Noam Chomsky

Hmm - a water based Rumi appeared in my stars today ... and I thought of you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry," writes Coleman Barks in his translation of the 13th-century poet Rumi. What he means is that you've been too tentative and inhibited in your relationship with the tidal forces of love; you've been holding back from giving your total devotion to the primal power that fuels the universe. "You must dive naked under and deeper under," Barks and Rumi continue, "a thousand times deeper!"
Consider taking the poets' advice, Virgo. If you can't manage diving a thousand times deeper, try to least make it a hundred times. Happy Valentine Daze!
great horoscope...can you name your source? i think the message could apply to me as i currently stand at the precipice of love, hey but i am not even a virgo
The source is Rob Brezny ...

(Until tomorrow) yours was:
Happy Valentine Daze, Aquarius! During this lover's holiday, I'm praying for you to have mind-boggling communions with smart-mouthed, quick-thinking virtuosos who are at least as brilliant as you. To be frank, I don't care whether or not these communions are with attractive members of your favorite gender. In accordance with the promises of your current astrological omens, I just want to see you stimulated to the point of spiritual and intellectual rapture by kaleidoscopic give-and-take sessions.
how wonderful, thankyou
