It’s only been a couple of days and the list is getting redundant. This isn’t everything. It’s just the ones I managed to get on the list.
Before Covid I was living my dream. Now, I’m not. Covid stomped all over it. I’m sure I’m not alone. The entire world is in this together. Being united would be the “A” plan But we have tRump the lord of division.
ANYWAY
It’s been difficult for me to dream a new dream. I have spent most of these hundred plus days of ice-0-lation hunkered down. I’ll admit to some fear. Especially when this plague finally starting spiking where I’m parked and people I know became sick and died. That got my attention.
My Covid Zombie face
So here I am trying to dream a new dream. I think I’m over the grieving. Now it’s time to regroup and dream a new dream.
Thank you for dropping by. Your visits lift my spirits. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. The sickness is spreading rapidly here. Much love ❤️

Years ago, on a dark street in the Quarter, I came upon this beautiful woman. Louis is my favorite performance artist in NOLA. I have taken many photos of him. I miss meeting him for drinks and stories. She writes poem on Royal Street
2. Memories Fade.
Covid isolation day 121. It has been long enough for my former life to begin fading away into relics and fuzzy memories of a past that no longer exist. These are the good ole days. The present moment, now, is all there is and I will live my best life now. I’m developing new thoughts and new ways of being that are not dependent on other people.They can not be dependent on other people because there are no other people in my now. My heartmind is grieving my former life and once again I say attachment is the trap, attachment is causing suffering. We all suffer. As I grieve so do I change, reinventing my life, walking alone
3. From the Osho Zen Tarot. Adventure: “When we are truly in a spirit of adventure, we are moving just like this child. Full of trust, out of the darkness of the forest into the rainbow of the light, we go step by step, drawn by our sense of wonder into the unknown.Adventure really has nothing to do with plans and maps and programs and organization. The Page of Rainbows represents a quality that can come to us anywhere – at home, or in the office, in the wilderness or in the city, in a creative project or in our relationships with others. Whenever we move into the new and unknown with the trusting spirit of a child, innocent and open and vulnerable, even the smallest things of life can become the greatest adventures. Zen says truth has nothing to do with authority, truth has nothing to do with tradition, truth has nothing to do with the past – truth is a radical, personal, realization. You have to come to it. Knowledge is certain; the search for personal knowing is very, very hazardous. Nobody can guarantee it. If you ask me if I can guarantee anything, I say I cannot guarantee you anything. I can only guarantee danger, that much is certain. I can only guarantee you a long adventure with every possibility of going astray and never reaching the goal. But one thing is certain: the very search will help you to grow. I can guarantee only growth. Danger will be there, sacrifice will be there; you will be moving every day into the unknown, into the uncharted, and there will be no map to follow, no guide to follow. Yes, there are millions of dangers and you can go astray and you can get lost, but that is the only way one grows. Insecurity is the only way to grow, to face danger is the only way to grow, to accept the challenge of the unknown is the only way to grow.” ~ Osho

Day 86 At the pier Day 87 OSHO Zen Tarot Exploring the depths of inner silence, where it meets the silence of the universe. Nothing to do, no where to go, the inner silence observes everything. It can annoy someone because they are accustomed to all the world’s noise and activities. That’s ok. I’ll find someone who can sympathize with silence, someone to enjoy my loneliness. Now, it is time to find who I was before they told who to be. The understanding and self-enlightenment that is happening at this point, will be revealed later, in an easier stage of life.Day 88 Chains Day 89 Each morning he and I are regulars on the pier. Day 90 Covid is spreading rapidly in this area. So what’s the “control the spread” plan? How about a street festival?Day 91 Covid is smothering me. Day 92 My Covid Mood
Thank you for stopping and interacting. I appreciate you. Stay well. Be safe. I love you.
