Shirl talks about "Mystery" 

I saw a mystery of blue fog in a small medieval town one night when the moon was rising.

It was in an area of France near Toulouse.

I kept that mystery of what was in that fog in my heart.

Was it another dimension?

Could it be what Allan calls the bridge between heaven and earth?

I don’t know.

I cannot say.

It has no name and it has no shape.

Mystery is to be accepted and marveled at.

One night after watching the show Bridging Heaven and Earth, I got this vision and began to search for the color to match my inspiration.

It was coral and reds and these all flowed so easily from my brush that I was up all night painting.

Not furiously, but happily.

I sat on the floor and let the color and the mystery that is inside of me just shower itself onto the canvas whilst meditating on whether indeed there is this dimension between heaven and earth.

And can we simply transport ourselves through consciousness to this place.

Do I have to know how?

Do I have to know what to call it?

I only know what I love and if I love and desire the manifestation of beauty around me.

I find myself there.

This is the mystery.

And this is the bridge then.
