Long Thoughts and Quiet Hours.

Today I'm feeling old corners have new light. I see the beauty in the dust that's gathered, the rust that eats, the particles dancing in shafts of light, and paint chipping in fascinating ways.

Today I'm feeling like a little girl, who finds the world wonderful.

Though this song is kind of sad in theory, I see death as another word for birth, our molecules transforming-- bringing new life. I have been around a lot of death, I used to fear it. But now I see it as a natural, merciful part of existence.

And I have discovered it's not death that saddens us, but the feeling of loss.

For those who have touched our lives, those who have shared their energy with us, a connection is formed that can't be severed or lost. From time to time we can hear their words, feel their love, and bear their smile.

So while Lee sings "Wish you were here" I sing "I know you are here".

Blessed Be.
