When The Shark Bites...

"Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear 
And he shows 'em, pearly white 
Just a jack knife has Macheath, dear 
And he keeps it, keeps it way out of sight"
(lyrics by Bertolt Brecht )

You never know what could be lurking in the shadows-be they on land or in the water!

Presence

"Where shall I look for Enlightenment?"
"Here."
"When will it happen?"
"It is happening right now."
"Then why don't I experience it?"
"Because you do not look."
"What should I look for?"
"Nothing. Just look."
"At what?"
"Anything your eyes alight upon."
"Must I look in a special way?"
"No. The ordinary way will do."
"But don't I always look the ordinary way?"
"No."
"Why ever not?"
"Because to look you must be here. You're mostly somewhere else."

-Anthony De Mello (From the book, "The Tao of Now"


Come. And be here. Now. No time like the present.


Come join us every week, as a group of us from around the world post our shadow shots over at Shadow Shot Sunday 2. Entertain your muse and be amused by stopping by to see what others have posted!

Corectt you are. Never can tell what is hiding in the shadows. Glad you were not close enough to find out from these creatures.

It's almost like a ballet underwater.

Not knowing what's lurking somewhere is what makes exploration exciting!
