letter of gratitude

to all you wonderful artists, writers, etc.

i have not written or shared my words in this

venue for some time because i was beginning to

get the feeling that my heart, my soul, the spirit

of my words were maybe not garnering the eyes of

the diversity of readers in a more common place.  

many of you are so much more talented than myself

in this writing format of communication both coming

from an academic side as well as possibly in the artistic

realm with words in general and sometimes i would get

the impression that my contribution was viewed in such.

my words come directly as i think them and directly from

my heart and soul. they speak of what my eyes see, what

my ears hear, what i sense, all in the realm of that common

theme called ‘Love’. i enjoy expressing my love of this life

through my words, my music and enjoy all of your works

and words for they touch me and fulfill my sense of being

i now, utilize a more general social media conduit for the

purpose of possibly connecting in some small way with

those people not necessarily in the coterie of artist, writers,

authors. i have witnessed that there are consumers of my

words in this venue who are touched without the predis-

position of academic or artistic judgment but just ‘touched’.

i guess this is my way of expanding my wings to experience

the wind that had not flowed underneath them for sometime.

selfishly, i herald this experience in the open environment

that so needs some creative injection with a sense of kind

energy that may, but for a moment, distract from a less

than kind and loving environment.

i wish to let you all know that many if not most of you

have inspired my words, my heart and soul, my being.

gracias for sharing yourselves with us who are in need

of continuous creative stimulation and inspiration. Enjoy

whatever celebrations you all participate at this time

of the year
