Stream of Life

Stream of Life by Rabindranath Tagore
The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth and of death, in ebb and flow.
I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride s from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment.

Saturday

Something is brewing..something is bubbling..perculating at Metropolis Cafe..under my fingers..the keys and my thoughts are moving out on to the page..it is a joy not to have writers block..to get out of my own way and let the words hit the page..no judgement..no anaylsis..just cause I am here writing..showing up to the page..letting myself be.

Mitziut

Meeting with the congregation Mitziut tonight was a return to the beach and community that I lost touch with. The sky turned a shade of pink, purple, lavender..the shimmering light filled our eyes with warmth and protection as we prayed. The topic was transitions..being in a transition myself sure hit the spot. There seemed to be six couples moving into serious transition such as moving to another state..getting married..quitting jobs..feeling good about it..
Mitziut will not be the same again. I wonder if I will return..I most likely will..I liked the service at the beach..I felt G-d's presence.

Another Day

Another Day Happened
Another sunrise
Another wonderful bowl of watermelon
Another sweet hug
Some new laughs in a convertible
Getting ready for an art show
Trusting the moment
Enjoying the grace of it

Greetings

Greetings from Eve

I begin a busy week at CJE putting together an art show and exhibit...It is gratifying to be working towards something and to be working with a group of good people on it. Way to go team..it is not just me who is excited about the tree of life..I like it better that way... peace...

What is new?

Brownstone Therapeutics spent Father's Day Weekend at Artists of the Wall. This year's theme was "Winds of Change" We worked with seventy children making art that changed with the wind...such as magical spirals, musical instruments, lots of painting. Paper plates are a great invention. I bought six hundred plates and used at least three hundred.

What is next?
At CJE Senior Life at Weinberg in Deerfield, I'm going to be putting up a show and a performance with residents on the theme of the Tree of Life. Lots of creative folks are making their own versions. Pictures to follow.

I am starting on a new book about all my moving adventures....related to finding home...
Have a good day

What a Day!

This was the last day of Shavuous. We remember when we received the Ten Comandments from G-d. Yes We were not ready for all 613...sometimes we are not quite ready for our blessings. Maybe we can't handle getting exactly what we want...take a leap of faith and know that you are worthy to receive exactly what your heart has been wanting since you were twelve or 22...Love..Love
