Entropy

Entropy- (noun) "lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder."

And such is life. Has there ever been any "order" anyway? Mount Shasta has taught me loads about unpredictability, and it has been nothing short of a miracle. Every new day I awaken with a new form of gratitude I had not known in the past. The mountain has taken shape inside of me, like a chrysalis, no one can quite predict when it will grow it's wings and take it's unique form of flight. 

Two weekends ago my parents, Joyce and Tracey, blessed us with their presence here in Northern California. We had an amazing time exploring the area, swimming, drinking from the headwaters of the Sacramento River, eating, drinking, laughing and being generally merry in each other's company. I will share some pictures below because words can't quite do my elation justice!








Do you see them swimming? My mom called it heaven :)


I would also like to share this quote, which was obviously written by a man, a long time ago (sorry! My belief) because of the reference to "power" which in regards to this post titled entropy, is an illusion.
But the quote is meaningful to me nonetheless...  "The greatness of a man’s power is the measure of his surrender.” -William Booth 

Surrender is the ultimate act of love. There is no way to hold on, so why struggle? We were never actually in control to begin with! When I let go I find the freedom to feel it all. 

All is love.
