Of Violence & Attack

[young_aragorn]

" You yourself are choosing to participate in the evil, or you are not alive. Whatever you do is evil for something. This is one of the ironies of the whole creation....One of the great challenges of live is to say "yea" to the person or that act or that condition which in your mind is most abominable

I've been waiting to read this. <3 I personally think one of the greatest treasures than you share with everyone is this journal, but I'm biased...reading your thoughts and opinions on things is precious to me.

Hmm. This violence thing. Talking about it with you so extensively, and then reading this has held a mirror up to me and actually I've started to ask MYSELF what I think about it. Thank you for being that mirror for me in this and in other things! I feel honored to have that connection with a very close friend who is a lover as well.

I'm glad you've found your peace with it, and to read the details!

Love you.

Thank you my love for listening and being there with uncanny patience to endure my long discussions and ideas on the phone or in person.
When you know all I can do when confonted with a question, idea, feeling of trial is to follow/ chase after it down the deep rabbit hole until I recieve it's gift at it's end.

Endure? Whatever, I love getting into this stuff with you. Some of my fondest memories are over long, late night conversations. ^_~

Yeah, what they said.

Guren vell, excellent job.
There is a tear of joy on my cheek at seeing one of my most favourite quotes (the Don Juan one, of course). Anyone going to Barcelona?

The memorial went well. Lots of familiar faces, great food (including fry bread), and great music, including an Oonaanaa group I had not heard before -- old enemies feasting and dancing together, yes. A spokesperson for T&H formally invited them to Celebration, this year. More yes.

I'm off to Holly and Ivy.
Talk with you soon.
Melin le.

Overwhelmed with gratitude.

WOW

I was having the "long moment of silence", and really didn't feel I could add to what you were saying, but definitely, always enjoy these explorations of ideas! appreciate the efforts you take to put them out there

Happy March!
The buffalo, elk and antelope look fat and happy. (film at eleven on babies). In another field, on the way to work, are numerous sheep, and babies - many of whom are twins. One lamb decided mom was a great hill upon which to view the world. Ah, freshly arrived life.
Talk with you soon,
Melon le,
