If you are seeking creative ideas,
go out walking.
Angels whisper to us
when we go for walks.

Raymond Inman


.................................................................................


Creativity comes from the spiritual realm,
the collective consciousness.
And the mind is in a different realm
than the molecules of the brain.
The brain is a receiver, not a source.

Candace Pert

Later in the day we learn about blizzards in North America, Europe and Northern Japan, some with taifun-like wind gusts . . .

Here it is "only" cold around zero and drizzeling snow-rain the whole day.

is growing
