a good place to start
the living, breathing body we inhabit is the energetic outline of our soul(look at yourself: you're amazing)we're here, now(pretty much a miracle, yes?)every moment: a good start(right now)it's not what we won't do, what we didn't do . . . it's what we will do:it's what we choose to dorightnow

everything you are and space for everybody else
"Sometimes resilience arrives in the moment you discover your own unshakeable goodness. Poet Galway Kinnell writes, 'Sometimes it's necessary to reteach a thing its loveliness.'
And when that happens, we begin to foster tenderness for our own human predicament. A spacious and undefended heart finds room for everything you are and carves space for everybody else."

for the moment nothing but an ineffable joy and exaltation remained
mysterium fascinosum [shivers of happiness]
filmaker
It was like the effect of some great orchestra,
when all the separate notes
have melted into
one swelling harmony, that leaves the listener conscious of nothing
save that his soul is being wafted upwards and almost bursting with its own emotion.
-William James

what remains? the language remains.
Then too . . . my family home,so to speak, was a bit different than usual.There was so much that was special about it . . .there were rules of conduct by whichI retained my dignity . . . andI was protected,absolutely protected,at home.
