Wherever you stand, know there is a river flowing now, very quickly. It is great and swift, and those who are afraid will try to hold fast to the shore. They will suffer greatly, for in this way, they shall feel torn asunder. Know that the river has its destination. We must learn to let go of the shore, even take to the torrent. We must keep our heads above the water and our eyes wide open. See who your companions are, and be glad! Tread this world lightly, leave only a trace. Everything that you see can be a sacred place. So, wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.
~ Celtic Blessing

“Peter Mayer writes songs for a small planet—songs about interconnectedness and the human journey; about the beauty and the mystery of the world. Whimsical, humorous, and profound, his music breaks the boundaries of “folk”, and transcends to a realm beyond the everyday love song, to a place of wonder at the very fact of life itself. He has nine CDs to his credit, and has sold over 70 thousand of them independently.”

Beautiful lyrics! These days I am happy to have a better understanding of the interconnectedness of God… of all that we experience in this journey. I’m so glad you and I managed to find each other over so many miles! It was meant to be!

Hope you’re doing well. Sorry to have been away. Been busy working on my memoir. Excuses, excuses! Right?
Hugs,

You always produce entertaining and thought-provoking posts; but this time you excelled yourself.
A full-on combination of wonder!
That Celtic blessing is a doozy of an introduction, thanks for sharing.

Hi! Sorry I changed my avatar from Richard Armitage to a dumb flower. 😦 Spreading out into the blogging world and RA not the image I always want to project! Anyway, thanks for this post! I really liked Peter Mayer. Never heard of him. Totally agree that you have to let go! Too bad it’s a hard thing to do. Let go of belief systems that no longer work for you, let go of crutches that you think you need, but you don’t, let go of people who are not your friends. Love it!! Hope you’re doing well.

Hey, Marie! I so understand about keeping one’s fannish passions under wraps. I shall miss the thrill of seeing your Richard avatar, but we both know in our hearts that he’s still there!
