34 degrees Fahrenheit - NYC today. No chance of greenness or spring that this city can be aware of under the dry crisp sun and sharp wind. Inside layers of clothing, however, there's a feeling that something is breaking new ground. I want to hold the soil in my hands, let it sip slowly, that fine texture, through the dark creases in between fingers. Watching the soil fall back into earth, I feel signs of small dots of green coming through. Maybe it's not just green sprouts. The colors of imaginations are often in the brightest hues. A multitude of excitement, beauty, but also calmness and acceptance is trying to funnel through the blank darkness of the soil. The inner consciousness is rejuvenating.
The public blog has always been an expressivenesses of the mind and heart that goes amiss in the daily life. This is an attempt to recapture that inner creativity from the first three versions of this site. Re-reading the old entries always re-creates a sense of history, fond memories, painful mistakes, maybe even shocking secrets. That same history projects a state of linear progress, moving forward and not dwelling in the forever past.
Personal development has always been a central theme in EFFLORESCERE. Personal development occurs at all different stages and phases of life and not just about the first time something happens. Perhaps the 100th time would be more special than the 1st.
If you are interested in documenting to the world your personal development, maybe you would like to contribute to this blog as well? Thoughtful souls apply.
