Poem of the Day:
You met a spirit guide today as he took out his eye and laid it down on
the glass table before you
He then grabbed your wrist and mumbled some sounds to which you closed my
eyes and dreamed
He said as a wanderer in search of water, his thoughts had been parched
for lifetimes
No longer able to talk, the eye rolled off the table shattering into pieces
And knocking over your glass of water
You arose as a little boy came in and swept his hand on the floor
squeezing his clenched fist
While picking up the glass and then dropped the eye into the water
For it has not spilled said the boy to you and the sight was never lost
A message you need to pass though is that water is the only and most
important part
You see said the man putting the eye back in many can’t respect a deeper
insight
But a child he said without judgment has all levels of observation for
what’s right
If you have seen what it is I had to say in merely looking in my eye
May you help a child understand their power in shaping our future reasons
of why
September 27, 2007... and still on the run!
When I think about all the great times and places that I visited this past summer, I am also reminded of all the great people.
September 2 - Flying team colours!
With the last few days of our run looming and the month changing, emotions are swelling like I mentioned in my previous blog.
August 25 - 'Our home and Native land...'
My return to Canada sends a current of emotion flowing through my channels of hope and inspiration.
August 17 - The Wedding
In Kansas running in the 99 degree heat, I ended up getting attacked by two dogs but was able to yell at them enough to keep them at bay until our exchange point vehicle came by.
August 13 - From Camp Hale to Vail
24 Miles of altitude above 8000', mountains, fresh air, an incredible team and a run to my training grounds for the last two summers combined to make it one of the best 2007 Blue Planet Run days for m
August 10th - 'In the company of our elders and our future generations!'
On the 9th we started our running from Zion National Park in Utah at 3 am. I was up last and ran the last shift from 7:45 - 8:55.
August 8 -'Cali through Death Valley to the Red Sandstone Cliffs'
Poem of the day:
Water is sacred
Simple and powerful
An essence makes life
And is life itself.
Any form of life
Is a justification of a celebration
August 2 – BPR Fremont through San Jose ending at San Simeon
The California sun is screaming hello even though the temperatures are staying cool. I love it!
August 1st - The Blue Planet Run in Japan.
'The vending machines on the top of Mount Fuji.'
Notes Version:
