Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time?
That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere and that the present only exists for it, not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future.
― Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
Landscapes of water and reflection

Art is not a reflection of reality, it is the reality of a reflection. ~ Jean-Luc Godard
These landscapes of water and reflection are an obsession. ~ Claude Monet
A river runs through it

“Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world’s great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters.”
– Norman Maclean, A River Runs Through It
Deep in the Woods
Photo and text by S.W. Cosgrove
Deep in the woods last week,
I found a daffodil and a tulip
placed carefully in a broken, rotted tree stump.
First flowers of spring,
symbols of rebirth, hope, love, and passion.
Thank you, whoever you are, for leaving them for me to ponder.
