Healing through stillness 🤓

Posted on January 29, 2020August 13, 2022 by cultured

For the first time in the better part of a decade I have been able to actually use my time off from the pay check to advance my personal goals. One of the most interesting to me is that I have been finally been able to sustain 20 minute sessions of standing meditation with my…

Yo ho ho 🤓

Posted on October 28, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

A shoe is a fountain is a pirate ship!  There is an outdoor mall not far from where I live. It is, in most respects, a typical high end mall, generic in almost every way, except for its fountain feature.  This shoe is interesting in and of itself, but the thoughtful creativity that goes into…

Sunday Rorschaching 🤓

Posted on October 27, 2019December 23, 2020 by cultured

I’ve never taken an official Rorschach test. I don’t really know anything about them other than the pop culture references that have been ever present throughout my life. I can’t even tell you if the Rorschach test is something that psychiatry finds particularly useful. I do know that, in spite of the fact that I…

Message from Home 🤓

Posted on October 26, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

One thousand miles away from me today, there sits a huge bear made of straw with its straw pumpkin friend. 1000 miles away from me today, there is a woman who loves me enough to have shared it with me. I don’t care how old you are. If you come from a loving home, it…

Broken radio 🥺

Posted on October 25, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

Today was supposed to have been a day without work. It was supposed to be a day of relaxation and recuperation after a very intense moment. Today was not that kind of day. In the end it wasn’t a horrible day. It was just another day. For some reason that feels somehow worse, but I…

Seeing red 🤓

Posted on October 24, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

Some days are easier than others. They just flow into a rhythm that gives the impression you have no responsibility in any of it. Today has not been one of those kind of days. In fact I have them rarely over the last few years. But, seeing red doesn’t always have to signify a crisis….

My perspective or yours? 🤓

Posted on October 22, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

This photograph reminds me that the framing of a thing really does change how we perceive something. I’ve walked by this tree countless times over the last decade and never once did this part of it come into focus. I framed what I saw, but will leave you to your own thoughts on this framing.

Fall drying fungi 🤓

Posted on October 19, 2019August 2, 2022 by cultured

The last few years, we’ve had more cloudy days than not in my tiny bubble in the world. Judging from the quantity and variety of mushrooms, it seems that, coupled with an elevated number of dead or dying trees, you get a paradise for these little fungi.  Because they are everywhere lately, I’m becoming moderately…

Post architectural creativity 🤓

Posted on October 18, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

I’m not an architect. I do not manage any buildings. Essentially I am no expert in the business of building or maintaining buildings so I couldn’t say for sure that the floating ceiling tile re-purposing shown here was not done by an architect. I can, however, say with certitude that somewhere along the line someone…

Looking up 🤓

Posted on October 16, 2019August 13, 2022 by cultured

When I walk now, I have a tendency to keep my head down. I don’t mean this in a humble sort of way. It was, for a long time, a practical thing. The arthritis made me weaker and off balance. Tripping over an unseen obstacle could result in a fall, a fall for which I…
