Wonders of the Underland
Alice: It's only a dream...
Cheshire Cat: Who are you?
Alice: I'm Alice.
Cheshire Cat: *The* Alice?
Alice: There's some dispute about that.
Alice: This is impossible.
The Mad Hatter: Only if you believe it is.
Alice: Sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
The Mad Hatter: That is an excellent practice.
Alice: It wasn't a dream; it was a memory!
[Alice is back to the "normal" world]
Alice [to her fiancee]: I'm sorry, Hamish. I can't marry you. You're not the right man for me. And there's that trouble with your digestion.
Alice [to her sister]: I love you, Margaret, but this is my life. I'll decide what to do with it.
Alice [to her mother]: Don't worry, Mother. I'll find something useful to do with my life.
Alice [to the crowd]: Oh. And one more thing.
[Alice lifts the hem of her dress to her knees and does the Futterwacken dance]

Applied Science of Being
All life is an application. Knowledge not applied is nothing. Experience is everything.
Life cannot be understood but only experienced. Feel it, and allow the flow of life go through you, through your heart, and take you on the journey of your life.
It is not knowledge or understanding that moves you ahead - those just follow the experience. You do not know until you experience. Let it flow, let it take you where it starts and where it returns to - the Source. All the knowledge is there - you bring your experience. It is like nectar for honey: Without it we do not see who we are - or who we can be and what we can do.

A New Day
There is a new day - and a new path.
There is a new path every day.
Check if you are moving up on a free-way, or following a rut /колея, Rus./.
Check it every morning, and choose a set of directions for the day.
And as you stir, do not forget the scenery along your path!
Enjoy!

One's Path
Sometimes it takes a long time to open one's mind. And sometimes it takes a really long time to open one's heart. And it is one's heart rather than one's mind that shows the way.
Your are on your way, for you are on your way for as long as you exist, and you are eternal. You are energy, and you are never stagnant or diminishing. As a human you can choose many ways of expressing that who you are not, but you are always on your way. You can find your Path however only with your open heart.
How many of us had bargained our hearts for something that looked more attractive to have as a human being? Do you know when the majority - the vast majority of us, humans on this planet - have done that on the Path?
In our childhood.
We did not do it as a sacrifice - we did it to be "good", to please our "teachers". We did well - we succeeded in bargaining our hearts for "the fit", and we kept our promise to never talk about it. It was easy to do - we chose to forget that, not to remember we ever had a spark in our heart, a song, a dance, a passion, and a path - our unique spark, our unique song, our unique dance, our unique passion, and our unique Path. We honestly forgot it - until now.
What changes now? We start remembering. Different events in our lives triggered that process, but whatever it was also ensured that it is irreversible.
There is so much information pouring in these days in forms of books, songs, movies, various works of visual and performing arts and natural events that one has to try really hard to stay deaf and blind and to insist on the old ways of living. There still are such people, and they are still a majority. So, every one counts.
That means that You - count. And that means that your heart is waiting for your mind's awakening to its song, its dance, its passion, its Path. That means that you are on your way to that Who You Are.
You are an alchemist - it is in you.
You are a dancer - it is in your body.
You are a singer - it is in your soul.
You are a Light - it is your Passion.
You are Love - it is Who You Are.
Can you hide any longer? Or the time when blossoming would be less painful than staying in a bud has finally come?
Look back; look to your childhood, and see it ahead of you as a future rather than as the past; just allow it for a time. Look closely; and as you look, remember your feelings, your hopes and passions, your faith and pain - and you'll remember your Path. You'll find your Heart there. It's been waiting for you all that time - claimed by many yet belonging to you and only you. All you need to do is just to claim it back as yours. You have to ask, and you have to show your courage, for a heart has the ways we as a society have ignored for the longest time.
You'll be different.
You'll be in love.
You'll follow your passion.
And you'll walk your path.
It is available to you.
Now. Upon request.
At the price of everything you managed to built so far in this life that is not you.
That is what you lose.
What you gain is up to you.
But it is a guaranteed gain -
an open Heart.

Celestial Light Show
Princeton Skies, July 8th, 8:37 p.m., 6 min after the sunset
All pictures are taken from the same spot, within seconds while waiting for the green light, with the Droid's camera. I was fascinated by the rays seen across the Eastern part of the sky, with what seems to be a fulcrum point captured on the right (East).
