sacred day seventy-one

evening sets.

3.11.2011

the backdrop of earth and sky was spectacular as i drove toward bumpass, va making my way to lead a retreat on bread making.  setting the tone for the evening was a glorious resting of the sun.  the sun setting lower and lower on the horizon created a delightful dispay of color & contrast, and led me into a space of rest and renewal.  i love the setting sun, it's marker that the day is shifting. i love the dusk where the word is mystical.  seeing these silos and farm roofs in the distance held meaning and presence.  here the world is created in the dirt, again and again with the work of farming hands.  here the sun sets just as it does everywhere else.  life stills its pace. life sets a new rhythm.
