A Quote to Kick off My Journey & Help Guide Me Through My Adventure...

To sing means to use the soul-voice. It means to say on the breath the truth of one's power and one's need, to breathe soul over the thing that is ailing or in need of restoration. This is done by descending into the deepest mood of great love and feeling, till one's desire for relationship with their wildish Self overflows, then to speak one's soul from that frame of mind. That is singing over the bones. We cannot makes the mistake of attempting to elicit this great feeling of love from a lover, for this womens' labor of finding and singing the creation hymn is a solitary work, a work carried out in the desert of the psyche."
Women Who Run With The Wolves, Clarissa Estés (p. 28)

  4. It made me laugh when you said you wanted to volunteer for everything. Your writing is delicious! Keep it up. You were beside me on the dance floor last night. They played Fire on the mountain, and Death don't have no mercy for Susie. Very moving. Killer show too. Party in the suite was sweet. Love you a lot. Mom
