A friend told me this week about an artist who I had never heard of, a Japanese-French painter, who was born in 1886 and died in 1968.. A rare discovery. In fact I wish I had known about him when I was writing my Master's Thesis in 1992, as his still life paintings are the closest I've seen to what I was doing at the time. I love these flowers.

Thanks, Karen!

"The Real within all that is real."

(C)ontemplation is . . . awakening, enlightenment, and the amazing intuitive grasp by which love gains certitude of God’s creative and dynamic intervention in our daily life. . . contemplation is a sudden gift of awareness, an awakening to the Real within all that is real. A vivid awareness of infinite Being at the roots of our own limited being. An awareness of our contingent reality as received, as a present from God, as free gift of love.

You point to something as having Quality and the Quality tends to go away. Quality is what you see out of the corner of your eye.
