So many ways to experience widening perspectives, as I have over the past 10 days: cycling, and kyaking among rural islands and in pristine waters in the Pacific Northwest; approaching Mt Rainier bareheaded and with awe on a summer’s day amidst the wildflowers, with the sound of the glacier stream in the background; sharing with loved ones over this time, in myrth or quiet reflection upon shared times and inner thoughts. Appreciating the richness of these diverse avenues. And dipping into dreams, which reflect all of these experiences from a kaleidoscopic vantage point.
Coming back to You Seeing Being Seeing–Evolved Seeing Being Seeing with awe-filled aspects of the natural and the inner experiecing worlds. Feeling still nascent in these evolving ways of Seeing, and so needing to fully value my own trajectory in this regard. Balancing caution against hesitation to move yet more into the Unknown.

Thanks for the new interpretation of ESBS, as Evolved seeing Being seeing! A very nice reading, which shows the clear contrast between the continuous improvement model of “evolving self” and the already-arrived model of Being.
And I, too, have happy memories of Mt Rainier, from decades ago, rising in the morning mists of late Summer . . .
