“I am touched by your beautiful anxiety about life, even more than I was in Paris, where everything echoes and fades away differently because of the excessive noise that makes Things tremble. Here, where I am surrounded by an enormous landscape, which the winds move across as they come from the sea, here I feel that there is no one anywhere who can answer for you those questions and feelings, which, in their depths, have a life of their own; for even the most articulate people are unable to help, since what words point to is so very delicate, is almost unsayable,” Rilke ltr 4. #timeinpracticeisfaithful #artandlivingenergy #abstractart #contemporaryart To the many vistas and to the expanses, #insideandoutsideart. https://www.instagram.com/p/BrYc7RIh7EL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6i0mjb1bvoo6

“Everyone has insecurities. When you show yourself in the world and display your talents, you naturally stir up all kinds of resentment, envy, and other manifestations of insecurity. This is to be expected. ... with those above you ... outshining the master is perhaps the worst mistake of all. ... People want to feel secure in their positions, and superior to those around them in intelligence, wit, and charm,” SG from Power. Having no sense of limits is a real power, it’s the creativity of life, and has to be thought about with people who are insecure, because what that touches upon is control. Creativity is a wonderful highway. Nature is the highway through the Earth. #energyalwaysknowsmorethanwedo , and #everyoneiscreative , #timeinpracticeisfaithful . #alchemy , we all change every day with how we use our connections to life. #contemporaryart #abstractart #abstractlandscape is how I make #energymaps. #hope and #grace . https://www.instagram.com/p/BrVvi5njcwh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19atcdwdki4uu

“With their whole being, with all their forces, gathered around their solitary, anxious, up-ward beating heart, they must learn to love. But learning-time is always a long, secluded time, and therefore loving, for a long time ahead and far into life, is — solitude, a heightened and deepened kind of aloneness for the person who loves. Loving does not at first mean merging, surrendering, and uniting with another person (for what would a union be of two people who are unclarified, unfinished, and still incoherent —?), it is a high inducement for the individual to ripen, to become something, to become world, to become world in her|him-self for the sake of another person, it is a great, demanding claim on her|him, something that chooses her|him and calls her|him to vast distances,” Rilke from May 14, 1904, letter 7. The old songs, what people need is love. All of the news is a range of people needing love.

“How anxious are we to find an answer to our problems! ... If we look for an answer, we will find it; but the problem will persist, for the answer is irrelevant to the problem. Our search is for an escape from the problem, and the solution is a superficial remedy, so there is no understanding of the problem,” Krishnamurti. A Field’s Medalist told me that the most important thing is to find the question, because once you have the question, then you can take a direction.
