I so resonate with and appreciate what you've shared here, Nicole..I remember singing There Were Roses back in the days, as members of the same band, Celtic Spirit. I touched me then, and does, as much or more so, now. I believe it is by stopping and reflecting, as you have done in this piece, that we begin to open to, and feel into, how we and our kith are keening. It is a strange paradox that I'm often reminded of, that the keening goes on, and I wake up to realize I've been tuning it out. The opportunity then is to stop and let it all land in me...
Thank you for the thoughtful reflections Howard. Sometimes we have to tune out for a little bit I think, for sanity... sigh. And then... let it land, as you say. ✨💛
Wise and thoughtful, Nicole. Every time I see a headline that ‘we will respond’ to the latest act of war, I shudder at how narrowly we define the ways we might respond.

Thank you so much Lorne. Very kind of you to say. Sigh. Ya I hear ya. Far far too narrow.
