I was writing a quick note to a very conscious person who
like me, buys many crystals from Canada rocks…
and when describing my photographs
I asked her to come and look at my Xanga… that
Sometimes I get lucky and take a good picture”
she asked me
…after seeing the pictures ….
“What did you mean by get lucky sometimes?”
krike…!!!…
Lucky is a funny word; traditional definitions of the mind often point to luck as something time bound …as that instance when an opportunity of the moment coincides with preparations made in the past…
And that has its point
yet luck goes farther down the rabbit whole that
Remember …those instances
when things simply seemed go your way..
When Luck occurred in waves like magic,
perhaps during a sporting event …
you were in the zone
every shot … a winner…
you said and did just exactly the ‘right’ thing..
and barriers and obstacles dissolved
Wonder filled things unfolded and happened that exceeded the statistical probability inherent in the patterns of cause and effect…
If you can regain touch with that feeling … you may notice…
The one constant in all of that was
You were in the moment
These moments, when recognized reveal to us a deep pattern of synchronicity…
That is a reflected feeling realization of be-ing in the flow of the momentary stream of Consciousness.
So in retrospect
What do I mean by:
“Sometimes I get lucky”
That is my ego… believing that at moments
I can capture a bit o` consciousness in writing
or in a picture
But its not really about me
What’s lucky….indeed
Is to be simply present when it happens

Lucky you!
They are quite fantastic photos. Though – you know. But flattery is your Achilles heel. No?
:shysmile: yes it is!
^^Touche, Friend Dosmangoes^^:sunny:

:spinning: present & acounted for the moment :spinning:
some of the pictures of your rocks can be very sexual at times… she couldn’t possibly have meant that?
:rolleyes:
I know what it is to be in the zone.. its weird how it is most likely to happen when I simply turn off my editor and open my self up to the idea that i do not lead as much as i follow.I think it feels like a chance happening becuase I don’t plan it…
finally…a non crystals post…i still dont get the crystals by the way
your statements of “If you can regain touch with that feeling … you may notice…
The one constant in all of that was
You were in the moment”
might be why i tell people that I either have extremely good or bad luck, since i’m usually hanging out in the moment. Although…i find adding a pinch of magic to the moment to be more fun sometimes :fun: :fun:

well put. well put. :sunny:
I believe firmly in synchronicity. I never thought about it as being in the moment, but you are right, it is.
