Java Zen:Thinking Out Loud Sunday, 2025.07.06 
It is wisdom to know the cycles of life and where any particular circumstance
that we are involved in stands on the curve. If we want to perpetuate something,
we should join it to new growth to compound our progress. If we want to destroy
something, we need only lead it to its extreme, for all things decline after
their zenith.

Snowed In

And loving it. The wind chime chimes no more…

Chimes III

    Somewhere within these drifts rests the silent wind chime…

    Roof Drifts

    The view from the front door…

    That drift hanging over the eve has crashed down several times during the night with a deep thud. Such noises, like Summer thunder, get Jasmine’s attention and she barks to alert the house. This also means that the snow just outside the garage has been well packed by both the wind and the falling drift from the roof. The final link in all this is that I have to chisel my way out when clearing the driveway. Sure enough. The ruler is showing 37.5 inches of hard packed snow.

    Shoveling

    And still, is Buddha…
