The greenery is getting so thick, around the edge of the back yard, that it's almost closing in. I had it trimmed back, for a while. But sun and rain and Nature conspire to make everything grow and grow and grow. {Naturally}
So now, it's feeling like I'm in the 'Forest Primeval,' almost.
Well, not quite. Even with all the vines and small trees growing at our perimiter... And with the towering trees in neighborhood around us... We still have view of the sky, of course. But not such a view down the street and into other yards and etc. Or into windows down the street. It does feel almost like I'm cut off, by natural growing things. Time to get the young man who takes care of too much growing stuff, for us.
And I was thinking that this is almost a measure of {or picture of} my feelings at times. On one hand, feeling expansive and out-going to the world. Communication galore. Etc. And then, the feeling of contracting into my own little personal world. Of family and home and self and reading and contemplation. Which is the real place for me? Which is the real condition, for me?
Or...... does my needed condition actually change, as it seems to change? Is it simply 'my way', to feel expansive at times. And to feel close to home base at times, as well? Are both these conditions so-called- *proper* for me, but at different times? Should I simply accept that my needs change? Even over a short period of time?
Sure, our needs and wants change, over years. But maybe, it's fine if they change, over shorter periods of time... Maybe we expand and contract and expand again, in our soul almost...?
Maybe...?
