More firm and

eye of caution.

1700-1748, Scottish Poet
There are
times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world
and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of
flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom,
energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition,
when things come to an end. They have reached their climax
and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally
of course, there are times that are cold, and cutting and
empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a
distant dream. Those rhythms in life are natural events.
They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing,
not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things
are.
-- Chogyam Trungpa

Discoveries
are often made by not following instructions, by going off
