Vindication

vindication

1. the act of vindicating or the condition of being vindicated

2. a means of exoneration from an accusation

3. a fact, evidence, circumstance, etc., that serves to vindicate a theory or claim

A legal matter that's been hanging over our heads since April 2009 finally came to an end today.

I'm glad it is over but it left me a different person. Anybody that ever had to fight the BIG guy knows what it is like being David against Goliath.

I can't really get into it on this blog, but after thousands in legal fees, many sleepless nights, anxiety filled days we where finally vindicated and lets just say if somebody believes in karma it definitely can be a "B"

Not that it makes me feel very good, i'm not a vindictive person and i was just saddened that it had to come to this. Maybe my life lesson the last 3 years has been that i can't control everything , sometimes i just have give it over to the universe and let things play themselves out.

Two nights ago a huge gray Wolf appeared to me just as i was dosing of to sleep, it startled me so bad that i woke up from it.

Maybe it means something or maybe it means nothing.

Right now all i wish for is a period of calm ...i know life is full of ups and downs , but just for a little while i hope for uneventful.

My name WAS Female, I shit you not! said...: I think I know from whence you speak.

That said...to my mind
the wolf was a sign to WOLVES in sheep's clothing to keep away from your door.
Peace be with you my friend.

A Dream Within A Dream

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

Edgar Allan Poe

About this blog

I believe in the cave paintings at Lascaux,

the beauty of the clavicle,

the journey of the salmon.

I believe in all the gods -

I just don't like some of them.

I believe the war is always against the imagination,

is recurring, repetitive, and relentless.

I believe in fairies, elves, angels and bodisatvas.

Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy,

I believe Raven invented the Earth

and so did Coyote. In archeology

lie the clues. The threshold is numinous

and the way in is the way out.

I believe in the alphabets, all of them

and the stories seeping from between their letters.

I believe in dance as prayer, that the heart

beat invented rhythm and chant --

or is it the other way around?

I believe in the wisdom of the body.

I believe that art saves lives

and love makes it worth living them.

And that could be the other way around, too.
