A young friend of mine who is a nurse practitioner told today that she has vaccinated more than 60 elders this week and the only side-effects they have noticed is a slightly sore arm for a few hours and a bit of tiredness as their bodies adapt to the higher protein count......She feels optimistic about the effect of wide-spread vaccinations and reassures us to not be afraid, the vaccine is safe.....

ARBUTUS / MADRONE

Today, when I was answering Kofla's question about hating Winter, I mentioned the Arbutus trees on the bluff and later realized that most people would not have seen Arbutus unless they have lived on the West Coast.....and I had forgotten that they are known as "Madrone" in the US.

They are magical trees......Here, they mostly grow on steep rocky bluffs overlooking the ocean.....but can be found many miles inland too. They are evergreen and have thick waxy leaves. In the Spring they have clouds of waxy, creamy white flowers that turn into orange-red berries.

The bark is smooth and pink/orange/brick-red......that over the Summer, slowly curls off to expose chartreuse new bark.......They often resemble naked Humans dancing on the bluffs........Many legends, poems and songs have been made about the Arbutus......

HARD TO SEE CHRISTIANS STEALING OUR SOLSTICE CELEBRATIONS

I have laugh at the Christians in the USA who are a majority....where every President they have had was a Christian.....pretending that Jesus was born Dec 25th so they could usurp the pagan traditions of Solstice.........Before Jesus was even a sparkle in the eye of Jehovah, Humans have celebrated the return of the light.....When the days start getting longer...

There is a stone structure in Ireland that is about 8, 500 year old.....It was built so that on the solstice, the sun would shine down the middle corridor.....it was engineered for the Solstice......as were the many standing stone structures of the ancients over the world..........

Pretty much every tradition the Christians celebrate at Christmas, are stolen from pagan tradition.

The Christians murdered, rap3d and colonized and forced their foolishness on the pagans of the world.....Killed and tortured and destroyed them in the name of a legend, an imaginary overlord who conceived himself .....or so the fable goes who they pretend was born on Dec. 25......

THE MEANING OF MY HANDLE

The name "Sparkleflit" has many meanings to me.....Of course there are the obvious ones of living in a watery place where sunlight hitting ripples in the sea creates sparkle-worlds.....and rain on trees sparkling like Christmas when the Sun comes out.....I live in a sparkly world......

But the main reason is about the Scandinavian ski-scooter called a "Spark" and how fast I could "flit" across the packed snows of my childhood home......

SO MANY CONNECTIONS

Yesterday I visited with my for a couple of hours as I do most Sundays...An old friend of mine came up in the conversation.....I was thinking about him while I was cleaning ...Prawns this afternoon.....we were more than friends for a while and then went back to being just friends....He came up to visit me in his sailboat about 5 years ago after his wife passed away.....He has a new wife now who I've never met......They have been living in Mexico most of the year........I was wondering how he's doing.....sending him love.......

Then tonight when I went on Facebook I had a friend request from someone whose name rang no bells.....and the friend I was thinking about was the only friend we have in common. I went to check out her profile, curious about who she was........I looked at her friends list and things got spooky.........I couldn't believe it.....most of her friends had at least one friend in common with me, which isn't that strange, but the friends we have in common don't know each other. Some of her friends are even friends with some of my relatives....

After a while I felt spooked.....then I felt close to tears for the sheer beauty of it.....I couldn't stop looking and the intrigue continued. She had friends who were friends with my friends who live in different places and who I'm sure have never met each other, and their only connection was that they are my friends......Maybe I'm not explaining it well, but just for instance, one of her friends had 3 friends in common with me and none of them know each other....... One is my local political rep, another is an artist in Vancouver and one is my nephews wife........Amazingness.
