thank you thank you, it feels good (ps think i might be majoring in jewish music at JTS which means i get to take like real music classes for the first time, along with music theory and music history classes, which is very exciting)
mara. i'm in a nuzzling mood so that is my first instinct, to send you a virtual nuzzle. I don't know however, if this is really how i've been affected. I've been thinking a lot about how things are good, better than they seem...as long as you can convince yourself of that it will be true (because you, I, we, can make it true). and now and again something, an interaction, a hug, a sight lurches me fully into believing that things are good and it would be absurd to think any differently. that is precisely the effect of this video. I miss you. E
that's pretty amazing emelia, because that's how i've been feeling and how I was feeling when i made this video. and part of it lies in our power to share the mmmfeeling. those hugs when you know the other person is baffled by the blue of the sky too? it's been so amazing.
oh, the universe! we will make it flow better by making peace with the land, the animals, the humans. when it comes down to it, isn't the goal to make more people/things smile wholeheartedly? blossom? if so, then the first step is to let ourselves do just that. if i'm not enjoying myself, enjoying my (relative) freedom, how can I believe it's a worthwhile thing to work towards?
every day is so exciting. in those moments where i'm not so sure, i'll say: there's a way to enjoy myself doing this, and i'm going to find it. otherwise, i'm not going to do it. (and there's always a way to enjoy myself. and if there appears not to be, it's probably because i'm overhungry or overtired or understretched. these things are also necessary.)
miss mara if you haven't yet, i would suggest listening to karen dalton. your voice reminds me a little of hers, kinda gritty and full of soul. "in my own time" is a brilliant album.
