Envisioning Possibilities – Relationships
A Community of Relationships
Martha Graham is part of my thinking community. Her quote tugs at my heart and keeps me going.
“There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time; this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.”

“Come with Bells On”
“Come with bells on” – That came out of my mouth while speaking to a few workshop attendees. Where did that come from I wondered. Especially since, it arrived in my mind and out of my mouth without being summoned. A family saying I presumed. Bringing a few bells...
