NO FEAR!


I borrowed this from "The Croning of Miss R":


AS A BEE SEEKS NECTAR
FROM ALL KINDS OF FLOWERS
SEEK TEACHINGS EVERYWHERE;
LIKE A DEER THAT FINDS A
SWEET PLACE TO GRAZE,
SEEK SECLUSION TO DIGEST
ALL YOU HAVE GATHERED.
LIKE A MADMAN BEYOND ALL LIMITS,
GO WHEREVER YOU PLEASE,
AND LIVE LIFE LIKE A LION,
COMPLETELY FREE Of ALL FEAR.
-Dzogchen Tantra
(To Elisie: NO FEAR!)

Love love love this image! I have been following bees in the garden and also managed to get a great photo!
Love the line and I suppose I live by it...
~seek seclusion to digest all you have gathered~ Yes I gather my photos of sweet nature!
That's what's great about poetry we see what we want and the words have a different meaning for everyone! Great post! hugs NG
