I get a little disturbed by god-talking I must say … I would like a totally secular world … I really would … sure of a more human friendly and earth friendly if so …
-Religions twist people’s minds! … for sure, I think.
putting belief
outside your self – unforgivable
betrayal
new gods like ancient
are for leaving behind
It can be seen everywhere … and during all times … another way is to experience the nature … the pure nature … close as macro and micro … calm and furious … friendly and aggressive … with open eyes … you will find its spirit everywhere …
in the eye
of hurricanes and bees
a nature heart
… sometimes harder to read … but there always is an understanding to find out … a problem to be solved … for new problems to find …
with knowledge
you may find wisdom to act
sustainable
for tree roots to run old
for bees to pollinate
… far out and deep down … and also in between … start close … body – earth – air ….
Now I think … I should be more poetic … relate more … picturing more … using nature … symbolic way … I should …. but …
… sometimes mood is like that … and sometimes like this …
Isn’t it amazing how the raindrops are kept … and sooner or later … running together … down … out for life …
“We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in.
Some of us just go one god further.”

Stunning photos, Birgitta! Most ”gods” are unworthy creations of man. But the natural world, including humanity, is so amazingly intricate, there must be a Master Designer, I think.

Thank you so much Lynn! It’s good we may think differently – for me it is inconceivable there is such a God described in people’s religions 🙂

I pray that He reveals himself to you.

Let him – I will look through 😉

Nature and nature alone is God … nice post Birgitta.
