I like this, very much:

Silhouette (Signs & Wonders) - January 25, 2005
The balance between dark and light, the cold but dreamy feel, the reflected illumination cast upwards on her face...and the contemplative pose. I'd pat myself on the back -- but I just took the picture. The artist, Winter, and daylight made the image. Along with time.

I'm happy that I got it.

I was reading about a watch, today. One thing that it does (out of many features) is visually show you how much daylight remains in the day. It also tells you when the sun will rise. And the moon. The watch has one analog hour hand, no minute or second hands (a digital display covers that). I like that very much, as well.

Time gets wasted, but not in its amount. I think we waste time's nuances. We color it like a kid with a crayon drawing snow: grab the white and go. But snow isn't just white, like time isn't just seconds.

I think that there is a much more subtle lushness to time. I like how it ties-in with movement and thought...memory and sensation. It has flavor and feel. A balance we only let ourselves see a little frozen moment of.

"When the soul wants...the soul waits..."
