Born to Run or Angels Unaware, is it a coin flip?

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.

Just finish your very interesting PROFILE & BLOGS..
My first love was & is, fine art, drawing and painting, before relocating to Ghana West-Africa during the 60's. (1965 to 1976) Once there and after Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's government was overthrown I got into jewelry making using African traditional designs as models carving them from, ivory and cow horn... On my return to America, (1976) I converted my carving skills into jewelry-model making and lost wax casting...
When I (semi) retired from that, I returned to my first love photography and
Oil-painting, using acrylic paint for base colors occasionally.

On retiring, after 35 years of jewelry designing and lost-wax casting, I returned to my first love, oil painting and photography.
