Haiku Ellipses...Invitation...Response...

  K A L E I D O S C O P I N G colored squares align by 4 triangles cornered 1 kaleidoscope kaleidoscopes are usually circular shaped, but in this haiku i began in the middle of the image below with squares and kept building outward with more squares of different colors, ending in a pattern that seemed reminiscent of the kaledioscope i remember looking into as a child...the 4 green triangles (half squares) added to the 4 corners gives a feeling of dynamic motion, the changing patterns of the kaleidoscope, hence the title   " K A L E I D O S C O P I N G ." we only are conscious of a small part of our processing ability, some 50 bits of information per second, but we are actually processing over a million bits of information per second according to Willian Bengston...consider digesting, breathing, heartbeat, nerve impulses, respiration, listening, talking, movement, hearing, touching, smelling, tasting--even the air, seeing...ecopsychologist Michael Cohen posits 50-some sens...

  WHO IS THIS BEING? starting with 3 hearts adding circles, ears, and eyes who is this being? The first heart is centered in the figure while the other 2 hearts are upside down and joined to the right and left sides of the first heart...orange circles appear at the bottom while green ears connect atop the head, and black eyes appear just above the ear line inside the top halves of the first heart...there is s light pinkish but masculine shaped nose...some purple shading frames the mid to bottom outside parts of the figure. Is the being human, alien, e.t., a costumed teenager listening to music with headphones, and/or... imagination creates being. In beginning with 3 hearts, i had no intention of creating a "being"...the figure just "emerged" toward the end of the sketching with colored pencils...if we give our imagination a little space/room to run free, and follow and trust the process, something meaningful will unfold, something that wants to incarnate will be bor...

HEALING ENERGY energy flows from heart, arm, hands, other person and back to the heart William Bengston describes an energy flow during the process of healing in his book The Energy Cure . The energy begins inside the healer, presumably near the heart area, and flows out down the left arm and palm and into the other person through the hands in contact with the other person's body. The energy carries information for healing whatever the issue might be, and the energy returns to the healer via their right palm and hand, which is also in bodily contact with the person being healed, and continues up the right arm and presumably returns to the heart. This is a energy-information cycle that repeats at a great speed, perhaps faster than light (like the speed of thought) for the duration of the healing session. Many case studies for human healing are described by Bengson in his book, and 10 laboratory studies of healing mice of cancer are described. Bengson has trained others in his heali...

 SHELL begin with 1 dot add 44 lines & curves living, breathing SHELL All things have their beginning with ONE.  From this single point of origin there are an infinite possibility of forms. In this haiku, lines and curves were added to the single dot, eventually forming what appeared as a living breathing sea shell. I did not intentionally set out to create a sea shell . I just began with a dot and started monkeying around, slowly something began to emerge, but i wasn't sure what, until near the end, it seemed the shape of a real living breathing sea shell .  Many times in life we go round in circles, chasing our tails like dogs sometimes do. This is okay for a game, for fun, but it's not a meaningful way to be and live in the long run. At some point, we need to evolve, make a move out of our cycle to create a point of origin for something new to develop. Often we don't know where to go from this point, only that we are on the path and travel with an loving intention....
