"Because when tough times come I'll be able to say, 'I've been here before.'"

Hey there Natty. From the sounds of it, you'll be ready for just about anything that comes your way. We can only hope that you'll join us in June???
Hello dear. I’m sitting in my house, listening to Arrested Development who speaks wonders and elicits “clearing the dance floor” and fluid yogaing. I go back to my room to replace the party tray and realize what it is, exactly, that I am handling.
A tray, one from, mm, I’d say Pargo’s of Harrisonburg.
It is taped up under soot and seed, keeping in place a collage. On one end of the collage is a man holding a globe like a softball, comfortably curled in his hand. Beneath him says “do less have more”. At the other end of the tray is a girl, petting –admiringly- a dinosauresque rhinoceros. Next to her states “dreams made real”. This makes me very happy. Dreams are being made real; more is being had; “doing” less is being experienced -individually- by the people who were together when the tray was first created.
As my presence suggests, I think of you. I think of you as being a tiny part of a beautiful, crystal clear, yet powerful river. I appreciate and respect the way in which you release your energy into this world. I love reading your words and seeing the beautiful imagery that manifests lucidly in my mind. I continue my efforts to be connected to Africa -which is encouraged by your work there already. I am in my struggles and my triumphs as everyone else is in theirs’, respectively.
I trust all is well and send you only love, encouragement, and respect to you and all who is yours.
