Sheared Beauty

This You Tube posting may disapper. It belongs to Walt Disney Inc. and was cut from "Fantasia".

Finding this was like feeling a cool breeze on a hot, muggy day. Refreshing, and a reminder that some things must be grasped and savored before they pass. This is my second-favorite piece of music and is so very elegantly set to animation. If you don't like the animation, just close your eyes and rest and meditate.

From another source I found this portion of reflection on writing and I must share it with you gentle readers:

It is a delicious thing to write, to be no longer yourself but to move in an entire universe of your own creating. Today, for instance, as man and woman, both lover and mistress, I rode in a forest on an autumn afternoon under the yellow leaves, and I was also the horses, the leaves, the wind, the words my people uttered, even the red sun that made them almost close their love-drowned eyes.   Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880)

From the world of our creation we share glimpses of what we wish to be. The reality is immediate when words and characters enter our brains and they are incarnate when we name them on paper and fill their veins with our ink.

They breathe the breath of life when their names are read by others.

Even if we decide to delete their character or change their name, in our mind and through our imagination, they have lived a lifetime, felt every feeling, laughed, cried, loved, dined, fought, overcome and passed on. For us, a thought; for them, everything. (c) Tim   timjohnsonphoto.com
