All things must end, but is the ending an absolute? Is not that end a shining doorway that opens to a new beginning? Does the phoenix not spring, singing, from its ashes into a different sky? Nataraj dances while the cosmic wheel turns: endings and beginnings are defined by point of view. "We are stardust: we are golden: and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden." --Joni Mitchell "Woodstock" |

The balance of both, keen to the eye of the beholder. This is happiness in full regalia. |

Ancient Hippie - It's that fear we all harbor when exiting one ending and embarking thru that door into a new beginning. I guess that's the music we must face to progress. I like this AH. Namyh |
