I tend to hurl myself toward ends. In the last two houses I tried to grow gardens. I would throw my mania into the ground, with little regard. Hastily reaching out to an end-ideal held in the mind. In love with the idea of the garden, despising the inbetween. A reflection of the interior hollow. So often in love with ideas of things. But I have visited those gardens, wild and tall, and have suddenly felt time moved too fast. A loss at what I missed. The longing for completeness replaced by a longing for the inbetween.
A balance here in the big green house. Moving beyond longing to simply what is. Sangha is being in the now.
