Today is my mom’s birthday. Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. Yesterday I was given The Gift.*
A perfect trifecta for a single effect: a study in red and white and a DANCE PARTY going on in my heart, soul and living room.
TOO WONDERFUL
No one could ever paint
A too wonderful
Picture
Of my heart
Or
God.
~ Hafiz
Tomorrow night I am going to dance my heart out in bare feet with a group of wild souls here in Providence in support of One Billion Rising.
To get in the groove, I have created a mixtape to keep the groove rolling from now til then.

*Yes! I have never held this in my hands before and now am obsessed.
*Thanks to my beloved friend, Camille.
Your friendship is one of the greatest blessings of my life! xoxoxox
I feel the love, those photos are fantastic! I scrambled over to Amazon to see what your book is all about, and now I NEED IT. Not only for me, but for my students. (Never for ME, no way.) Your One Billion Rising sounds awesome as well. It's a Valentine's LOVE FEST. I heart you. xoxoxo
Hafiz coaxes my art through my hands. once, i stood in a huge beautiful studio that was mine all mine for 3 days and froze. just froze with thoughts of unworthiness, and all that blah blah blah. opened The Gift to a random page to look for something – anything. bam! page 207 – ” All the talents of God are within you.” created 15 pieces in 3 days. all were selected by a gallery. May your gift of The Gift bestow such magic upon you! (and PS, my book was a gift to me as well! tk you Swirly)
Happy Valentine's day and joyful dancing, dear E. I am so in anticipation of magic of myth… Perhaps I will have a spinning wheel once we start ;-). This music is so nourishing. Thank you so much sharing this with us. I will spin a bit now, thinking of gifts and love and how everything gets a meaning and sense when there is someting and someone you love…
XOXOXOXOOX
you FEEL the love cause you ARE the love, baby! xoxo
yes yes yes!!! xox
oh me, too!!!! I love that you will have a spinning wheel– that is positively mythic! XOXO
