how do you tackle a looming project or responsibility?

farewell shel
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die ~ Thomas Campbell
today is the one year anniversary of the untimely death of my friend, shelley. shelley died of complications related to being hospitalized during a bone marrow transplant for leukemia.
shel removing a splinter from my foot during a crazy fun dance party in her living room. that's the kind of person she was - putting her fun aside to nurse a friend.
look at that smile - beautiful, yet something deliciously wicked cooking up behind those eyes!
love & miss you tons, shel

Dance and swirl, or burn and become bitter. ~Nadine Falwell
Monday is the SUMMER SOLSTICE (aka Midsummer, Litha) - the longest day (and the shortest night!) of the year. All over the world, people honor and acknowledge this time of Light and Energy and to connect with this solar tide of abundance. One of the customs associated with the Summer Solstice is the blessing of animals. and FIRE! (dance naked, but don't get too close to the flame)
trivial? i think not!

phriday filosofy
May all be well with mankind.
May all the leaders of the earth protect in every way by keeping to the right path.
May there be goodness for those that know the earth to be sacred.
May all the worlds be happy.

wednesday is Bloomsday, celebrated by James Joyce fans all over the world. It commemorates the day on which the events of his novel Ulysses take place. Joyce chose June 16th, 1904, for the setting because it was the day of his first date with Nora Barnacle, his future wife.

YES!
There is no saying "no." Only "yes" is the appropriate response to this beautiful life. Yes, yes, yes, to the rhythm of our breath.
Yes, yes, yes, to the last breath. One final, long, and slow Yes, riding out of this life on Yes, just as we rode in, screaming it at the top of our fresh lungs.

reflection
Why is the word yes so brief?
It should be
the longest,
the hardest,
so that you could not decide in an instant to say it,
so that upon reflection you could stop
in the middle of saying it.
