Time to Create

Mary Oliver

“The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave to it neither power nor time.”

– Mary Oliver

To write to your heart’s content….paint till you drop…play music obsessively…whichever you even have the tiniest spark to do,  just start.  We can surprise ourselves and find out things about ourselves we never realized we could do, just because we started!  – JQ

“You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves. […]
The world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting-
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.”

From “Wild Geese”;

Dream Work (1986)

The Invisible Red Thread

“An invisible red thread connects those destined to meet, despite the time, the place, and despite the circumstances. The thread can be tightened or tangle, but will never be broken.”

– an ancient Chinese Proverb

Ayie says that Lok Baintan Floating Market is a traditional floating market which is located in the village of Pinang River (Lok Baintan), Tabuk River district, Banjar.  Floating market activity begins at 07.00 pm until 10:00 pm. they sell various merchandise, such as vegetables, fruits, traditional cakes, and others.  What is  interesting is a system of exchange of goods.   The floating market does not make money as a major transaction,  because the sellers and buyers  in the floating markets are still applying the barter system.
