“Just as the cloud of unknowing lies above you, between you and your God,
so you must fashion a cloud of forgetting beneath you,
between you and every living thing.
will perhaps leave you with the feeling that you are far from God.
But no,
if it is authentic,
only the absence of a
cloud of forgetting
keeps you from him now…..
whether material or spiritual
nor with their situation and doings
whether good or ill.
you must abandon them all beneath
the cloud of forgetting.”[v]

and every sense of
life became drained from her.
The realization that came was:
"When there is no personal self,
there is also no personal God.

TURN THE ATTENTION TO WHAT CANNOT CHANGE

Solving Yourself
Aug 19
AFTERNOON
I close my eyes
and breathe -
smell the seaweed
strewn across the sand,
hauntingly familiar,
the mind-madness
momentarily, magically
arrested.
Old memories
capture me
enrapture me
and I am freed
to wander
through old dreams.
Child, girl, woman
in moments of bliss
on English days.
Cold seas,
shells and seaweed.
Chalky country lanes,
the summer smell
of hot tar melting
on the road,
shimmering
like oily water
in the sun -
or a meadow,
cowslips and cowpats
sharing the space.
in this foreign land
looking for release,
the smell of seaweed
more evocative
than any perfume
rescues me.
It winds itself
around me,
lingering,
like longing does.
Healing.
Senses saturated,
I drift away.
The generous sea
sends me home
on scented waves of salt.
