Ummm Bruce Springsteen or Carrie Newcomer? Is this about fear or recognition of both? "Baby we were born to run", from reponsibility, holding onto the last moments of freedom of youth? Carrie Newcomer reminding us that at any moment in time we may have an angel near or we may become an angel unawares for the good that we hope to do or be.
It feels that I am in an interesting spot right now of learning lessons of how others who aren't as "educated" as I, (but equally smart in other ways) live a life full of the richness and power of the Divine through all of the hardnesses and tough places life hands us.
Being part of a community that values each human/soul as best as they can is the true measure of living in community, seeing the other soul as one and the same as my own soul is also a measure of the Divine's Grace currently acting within my consciousness.
Carrying a sacred fragment of music that soothes the divisive voices of the external world into the realm of the Divine Interior is what I have to keep in right order.
Thus, do I find myself hearing melodies, glimmers of poetry and sometimes raucous ribaldery to amuse and soothe and offer Praises to the Most High. Gratitude for being able to hear and be at one with the Divine. Blessings for the tools that keep me sane and whole.
Random and not always timely musings of my life as an artist and spirit-at-large. ODAAT and all that jazz!

Short note from the Land of Mis-placed Toys.
I am at the daily bread job that does not entail real bread any longer. I've moved from the Land of Bread literally into the Land of the Cart. Manufacturing that does not take place in our actual facility and does take place in Taiwan, China mainland, and parts of the United States.
Where have all the good jobs gone?
Gone to the best possible price for Labor that could be found.
So, I am in a job that barely pays a living wage, deeply grateful that it is a paying job with full hours Monday through Friday.
What's a college educated, wise woman to do.
Live in the faith walk that has been handed to me; continue to take actions to a deeper level of security. Believe that all is well in the Divine's intentions for me and love everyone who comes my way.
That is the blessing I suppose, to be able to see this and act within it and patiently wait for the next right action within this Now and life that I have been given.
It is the mid-term election day and I have promised myself to live in acceptance of what will be ( and we don't know that until it is all over now do we?)
Blessings as always my friends on the journey.
