I went to Temescal Gateway Park in Pacific Palisades for a cranio sacral and polarity bodywork alignment appointment. Its a very rustic park in that nature is unbridled and bending to the environment. I grew up in San Diego, California where the environment was manipulated and sculptured to adhere to the rule of a few. Balboa Park is beautiful through, or was beautiful when I lived there. I am not sure if things are the same.
Still, rustic and natural foliage are beautiful too, even if there is draught, flood or infestation—it’s all part of nature rebuilding and reclaiming. I took some pictures of dirt roads and over grown trees in Temescal Gateway Park. Then, I noticed this sign that struck me as an interesting ecological juxtaposition. A tree that was cut down to make a sign, nestled and embraced by a living tree. Even nature speaks to us.
