Being In The World

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you:
But when the leaves hang trembling,
The wind is passing through.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I:
But when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.

Thanks C. Robin Janning --

These were all painted in Jan Tarr's Painting and Meditation class at the Center for Contemplative Prayer in Manzanita - Jan gives us a passage and we meditate - after that we get up and paint whatever.
Thanks to Jan and Lola (who keeps the center going) for their support.

A stunningly beautiful visual meditation. Thanks, Ann.
