Subject: healing and Eiko's unifying painting

I've been struggling for a couple of weeks. I've read parts of the healing section. The announcement paragraph in V.10 is eye opening. I've been irritable, tired, impatient, and, perhaps depressed. I've read that paragraph several times because it shows that you understand what is happening to many of us. It has helped me recognize what is happening, and I want to begin the healing process.

I saw Eiko's SUN RISE? SUN SET? I love her attitude and positive approach. If we could adopt Eiko's belief that we all share the same sun, ocean and sky, and that we are all humans, perhaps we will become one in sharing our earth. There is hope.

Ruth, part of the value of openness is that it gives others a chance to see that they are not alone in their reactions. I'm glad that my sharing helped you recognize your needs. That's a part of what the extended family, and then the community, used to provide.

love and peace, jeanne
