I woke up at 3:33 a.m. this morning. A feeling that someone is standing behind was the cause of my awakening. While turning, I realized what it was about.
Already knowing what I am going to see, I looked at the clock: 3:33.
"Okay, fine, what is the message?" I surrendered quickly since my oh-so-rational mind was still half asleep.
"Gotta write - gotta write - gotta write." In a mesmerizing rhythm came the words too simple to argue with.
It was too late to pretend I am deep asleep, and still too early to go into analyzing. I chose to get lost in the infinite space of dreams - until the sun is up.

Today is gorgeous, filled with the blue shine of the brilliant skies and red flames of maple leaves outside of my window. The sun sends its light to all; no distinction is made.
A shadow moved across the trees, and a moment later an eagle made its royal passage above my head. I am standing in admiration for the certainty of the flight, and the bravery of autumnal blossom of a red rose that greets everyone whose path leads to my house.
Since I started to paint last year my ability to see has changed. To be more precise, my point of observation shifted from a habitual way of labeling and categorizing to heart's perception. And to a heart, all is Beauty.
I had a few surprises along the way. For instance, having a task of drawing a rose, I discovered that each layer of petals consists of triads. I was utterly surprised: How many roses I have seen in my life, and never noticed such an obvious thing?? And how many of those nature's wonders do we miss using our habit-altered perception?
