About Me



Interests:
Learning (and always studying) new languages, cultures, art, places, architecture, writing short stories, poetry, photography, advocate for senior rights (legal, employment, housing, family ties, abuse, etc.) Love the out-of-doors, any season, any climate; love camping, fishing, one-day car trips, exploring new cities, small towns; addicted to window shopping at hardware stores and plant nurseries and bookstores. A very judgmental and uptight man once told me that I was uncivilized because I love to drive and walk barefooted. I refuse to apologize...I'm a nature girl

LINEN
 
Ironing this breezy blouse
(before my visit with friend Gladys to the
Civic Center exhibit of my African ancestors)
 
I confess my love affair with this
Fabric of these
ancient,
natural threads:
 
Although it
Frustrates,
Enrages, and is
Rejected by others
when it
 
Crinkles right away,
 
I’ve always loved the
Coolness,
Vulnerability,
Openness,
Magical Imperfections,
Accidental nubs and knots, and the
God-given,
Unashamed
Fallibility
Of it.
 
Its touch against my
Crinkly,
Sweaty,
Mistake-prone skin
in this
Humid
Atlanta Sahara
Kisses me with
Much-longed for
Forgiveness.

Mitzvot are emprising efforts which we make to bring peace and restore harmony. Even though the fancy words remained with our Garden Lands Brothers, the Silence of Love, Solomon's Shamir, was brought to Turtle Island. the Mitzvot are still sincerely kept on Turtle Island by the 28 Nahual Nations who are Abram and Sarai's descendants.

"A great pianist was asked by an ardent admirer: 'How do you play as well as you do?'

The artist answered: 'The notes I handle no better than the pauses between the notes -- ah! that is where the Art resides.' " . . . .Likrat Shabbat.

In great living, as in great music, the art is in the Pauses. Surely one of the enduring contributions which the Ancestors made to the Art of Living in Balance to Win the Game of Life is the Shabbat, the Pause between the Notes. We are Blessed with Shabbat to preserve both the memories and visions of Paradise which our Ancestors Enchanted for us each Shabbat Eve. It is Grandmother's Silence of Love Pauses which Provide Clarity and Harmony to Grandfather's Rolling Thunder Words. When we stop and listen with out Hearts, we receive Their Blessings in great abundance.
