expression ( word, dance, text, image, story, music, poetics)
learning, yielding......

Hopes for the blog:
offer up the wild intersectedness of lived experience and engage others in creative, expressive, perhaps irreverant, hopefully playful, and respectful encounters....
enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

Learning... always learning



We shall not cease from exploration 
and the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started
and know the place for the first time.


T.S Elliot.

  4. When true simplicity is gain'd,
    To bow and to bend we shan't be asham'd,
    To turn, turn will be our delight,
    Till by turning, turning we come round right.

  6. Me too. I hunt the wild wisdom and often find the spoor of folly. It is necessary to look ridiculous sometimes, perhaps more often than I care to.
