A SHAMAN

"A SHAMAN ... KNOWS THERE IS A SEA OF CONSCIOUNESS THAT IS UNIVERSAL EVEN THOUGH WE EACH PERCEIVE IT IT FROM OUR OWN SHOES, AN AWARENESS AND A WORLD THAT WE ALL SHARE, THAT CAN BE EXPERIENCED BY EVERY LIVING BEING, YET IS SELDOM SEEN BY ANY."

It's Christmas again

And I'm still busy with gifts and recipes for the night when many people will meet and eat together. Things haven't changed much, have they? Babies have grown up a bit, that's true, my garden has new flowers and many of the old ones have died ...What else has changed? Oh, yes, there are new wrinkles on my face, more than I should expect to see.

Next week I'll travel to good old Rio and have a good time. A time for going to the beach, to see old friends, drink the iced beer that I miss so much and, most of all, just sit at a cafe on the boardwalk and watch the world go by.I'll do the things I like to do while they still exist.

Nobody is asking me for advice, but I'll do it, as a Christmas gift:
Do the things you like to do, eat in your favorite restaurants, kiss the people that you feel like kissing, dance the music that touches you... Everything has an end. They just vanish before your startled eyes one day, just like that.Believe me. And have a Merry Christmas.
