My grandmother
Always
Had a bowl of candy out
On the table
For usLove comes out in many ways
But always there's the feeling and intent
Action too.Offerings to children
And everyone else too
Do not go unnoticed
By me.The song was one of her favorites
Perhaps because it has an Eastern European flavor
I would always play it for her on the piano
And she would always clap afterward
With misty eyes.

It rained today.
It was a good day.I remember how people came out and danced in the streets when it rained in India;
How they would give a portion of all that they had to the fire ceremony
All that they coaxed from the soil or milked or crafted with their hands
So there would be life-giving rain.The fire used to light the fire pit
Was maintained and handed down
Generations upon generations back.So much power in that,
I could barely hold up my own head
Or walk around the fire one more time
And then it rained.*This song immediately came up whilst I was writing this.
We are all made of stars...
EssentialAnd here is a ceremony of a different sort in this vid clip
Feeling and creativity... Life emerging as itself: empty, full, emptied, filled
Production values go in different directions ;)
Intent focus on giving....
Intent focus on giving.
Celebration, boredom, style... yearning for
Differences that meet at the root of things.What comes naturally in every case - Life.
I sense somehow; could be wrong, but?
