Integrative Studio 2, Wednesday

Wednesday

Today I thought about how the earth and sky accommodate us. Through the waters of the earth and the sky and the plants that grow through the sky we are enabled to live. It is the combination of heaven and Mother Earth that guides us and shows us love and compassion on a daily basis. As it is commonly interpreted, heaven and earth are divine, yet doesn’t the daily interaction with both signify to us that we are divine as human beings just like them? How strange that for the longest time non-living and living beings were existing alongside without ever really disturbing one another. It makes me think about one of these small water puddles on the sidewalk of Paris. The whole universe, all houses, skies, starts and beings are mirrored within them without ever disrupting their existence. I look at the puddle and the puddle looks back at me. How is it so difficult for us as humans to reflect these peaceful interactions? How can it be that corruption and greed only affects us? I wonder if I would prefer to be the puddle. Maybe.
