A Wee Woodland Elf

MAY 28, 2009

Do you ever wonder...
what would happen if you caught that
little movement,
right there at the corner of your vision???

If time stopped
and you could really see the world
as it is...
beautiful in every shape and color imaginable...
And... if what you thought about reality,
wasn't really real???

I do.
And, sometimes, my imagination takes a photo
and I get to enjoy endless possibilities...

This wee fellow was begun over two years ago... but while recently visiting my dear friend Mo'a, I was inspired by one of her incredible creations, entitled "The Awakening"... so much so, that my ears unclogged from the din of the fastness of life, and I could hear this little woodland elf whisper that he wanted to come fully into form and go and live with my dear friend Elizabeth... so ready was he, that he traveled all the way into the big city on the bay and presented himself to her on her birthday...

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
