So beautiful, Ins! Thank you for that.

 

You're welcome, Lapis.

Those ladies certainly sound fabulous together, and it

is difficult to choose a favorite performance of that song ...

so many gorgeous versions.

 

We have more snow falling tonight - schools and businesses

started closing late this afternoon.

Everything's covered in white. 

 

Hope you are staying safe and warm.

Hugs for you.

Actually, the voices inspired me to watch another video -- Indigo Girls singing their classic "Closer to Fine". Now, I'm watching an interview with them, and it's great to hear a bit more about who they are and how they work.

 

And yes, thank you, I'm staying warm. Throw on another blanket, Ins, and get cozy for the night!

Hugs to you and all who visit here,

Lapis

I"ll watch that interview.  I know very little about Indigo Girls, only

that I've enjoyed hearing them over the years.   

Thank you, Lapis, for bringing that video to my attention.

 

Hugs

Yet if hope has flown away

In a night, or in a day,

In a vision, or in none,

Is it therefore the less gone?

All that we see or seem

Is but a dream within a dream.

I also wanted to say "Hello!" and "Welcome" to some people who've just popped in to join us on this thread!

I have accepted fear as a part of life — specifically the fear of change.... I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: turn back. ~Erica Jong

 

“Don't be afraid of your fears. They're not there to scare you. They're there to let you know that something is worth it.”

― C. JoyBell C.

 

Blue,

 

Thank you, so much for the quotes.

What a difficult day this has been.

I'm so grateful for the encouragement.

 

Wading through change, constant crushing change,

can make one weary. Some days are in

slow motion: maybe that's to give

the heart and mind time to catch

up. 

 

Wishing you peace.

 

Love

Ins

To share this way makes us vulnerable

To have the bravery to share anyway, is simply beautiful

 

Each of you brings comfort and strength - part of my heart and healing.

Vulnerability is the only authentic state. 

Being vulnerable means being open, for wounding,

but also for pleasure.

Being open to the wounds of life means also

being open to the bounty and beauty.

Don't mask or deny your vulnerability:

it is your greatest asset.

Be vulnerable:

quake and shake in your boots

with it.  the new goodness

that is coming to you, in the form

of people, situations, and

things can only come to you when

you are vulnerable, i.e, open.

Thank you, so much

Lapis,

Thank you, again for the song and the interview.

These women are amazing.

Listened to Jackson Browne's "Rock Me on the Water" a little earlier.

Couldn't help but think of you...

Is this one on your dizzy dame playlist?

Hugs for you
