In Norse Mythology the World Tree, Yggdrasil, is the center of the nine worlds
I am adventuring in a far away land, and my heart is no longer here nor there, materially in one place, spiritually in another - It now finds its home in cyberspace, inextricably bound to the World Tree, whereby it may remain connected to every world in which I have ever lived. Let our minds leave our private worlds, let our thoughts, ideas and experiences course freely through the roots and branches of Yggdrasil where they may be shared and united.
"An Ash I know, Yggdrasil its name,With water white
is the great tree wet; Thence come the dews
that fall in the dales, Green by Urth's well does it ever grow.
Thence come the maidens
mighty in wisdom, Three from the dwelling
down 'neath the tree; Urth is one named,
Verthandi the next,--On the wood they scored,--
and Skuld the third. Laws they made there, and life allotted
To the sons of men, and set their fates."
- From the "Voluspo" in the Edda of Snorri Sturleson
Spring is here.
I have this crazy bird outside my window.
I think he may be a little deluded... you know, like that duck in "Babe" (the pig movie, come on, you know you saw it, we all did) who thought he was a rooster. Except my birdie friend has a bit more violent of a delusion. He pipes up early in the morning with a repeating cycle of CHIRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP CHIRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP-IRP. And he'll do it over and over again. Like he thinks he's an AK-47.
Birds are weird in Virginia.
