About listening through images…or letting symbols talk to you. These two have been talking to me this season. One from nature, the other urban life (or at least mine-disco balls are important to me!) Integrating different types of glory!

I often wake up with images, and try to see what they are trying to say…sort of like doing art therapy on yourself! Or tuning in to where your at through symbols, and that level and type of communication.

Feeling like working these two symbols into a poem today. Let you know when i get there. The inner life of disco revealing itself-its inner, rather than reflected glory; and the green clean sheen sheerness of mountain stream (this one up in Colorado)-just seeing it is refreshing. Let’s see how these two symbols converse with one another…as i keep being drawn to them.

(finally the disco ball stops just reflecting other’s light, and reveals it’s own inner light, while the nearby mountain stream cuts Silence leanly through the pathways of forest-how do the two types of glory meet?….something in me is related to these two images today; perhaps it’s where i’m at, to reveal more of my inner light, and to move in clear swift refreshing glistening communication down the mountain….that’s assuming the two images want to speak about now, and to me!)

i like the art challenge of putting two very different symbols into the same narrative. I often feel like that myself. Hum…I’ll keep listening to their conversation! Maybe it’s time to let my light shine and jump in a river! We’ll see!

What images are speaking to you this season friends? It’s good to locate the images of each season of life, and let them converse in and to us! In order to see where we’re at.

Some of my images are life long ones which just change nuance over time. Others feel newly introduced each season. Fun thinking about what each person’s images are each season, and reading what they need from them. It’s an art practice i like for myself and with others!

These seem to speaking of integrating different types of glory, and letting them both shine from within outwards. They also speak of integrating natural glory with urban types in myself, and finding God in both! Also, perhaps that He wants my disco part to erupt from the inner self, and my communication to rush like a clear mighty stream. Natural wonder and urban wonder both conversing. Or, let out the Light and let it flow like a stream… They will keep speaking I’m sure!
