I met Erica a year ago this month in Brooklyn, New York. SilentLambs March on the WT headquarters. Yes, she is one of my hero'es. Very courageous young woman.

She is one of many who aided in my healing process and having her Mother there.

I am proud of you Erica!!!!!!!!!

Wild Idea

by oldcrowwoman in

this may be bizzare to some of you and maybe not from for others!!

you see i bought this super duper vacum cleaner this past week-end.

what i want to do is ritual or honoring with my old hoover vacuum cleaner.

Well I made the decision in dealing with Hoover. I want to paint it with vibrant colors. Super glue broken pieces of mirror all over it. And hang it from a tree upside down and watch it sparkle in the sunlight.

I will know when it will need to come down. It's uncertain where it will go from there.

The point of the matter Hoover has sucked off a lot of dirt and crap in my life. A shrine of my survival. Oh my graven images!!

Attention

"to have one's individuality completely ignored is like being pushed out of life.

like being blown out as one blows out a light.

"To have one's individuality completely ignored is like being pushed out of life. Like being blown out as one blows out a light." ---Evelyn Scott

We need to know that we matter in this life. We need evidence that others are aware of our presence. And thus, we can be certain that others need the same attention from us. When we give it, we get it. So the giving of attention to another searching soul meets our own need for attention as well.

Respectful recognition of anothers's presence blesses him or her. And we help one another grow, in important ways, each time we pay the compliment of acknowledgement.

We're not sure, on ocassion, just what we have to offer our friends, families, co-workers. Why we are in certain circumstances may have us baffled, but its quite probable that the people we associate with regularly need something we can give them; the reverse is just as liklely. So we can begin with close attention to people in our path.. It takes careful listening and close observation to sense the message another soul may be sending to our own."

" I will be conscious of people around me. I shall acknowledge them and be thankful for all they are offering me"
