Someone may have stolen your dream when it was young and fresh and you were innocent. Anger is natural. Grief is appropriate. Healing is mandatory. Restoration is possible. -Jane Rubietta

My dear child, who can tell? One can only tell that, by remembering something which happened where we lived before; and as we remember nothing, we know nothing about it; and no book, and no man, can ever tell us certainly.
Some couples don’t ask much of one another after they’ve worked out the fundamentals of jobs and children. Some live separate intellectual and cultural lives, and survive, but the most intense, most fulfilling marriages need, I think, to struggle toward some kind of ideological convergence. Norman Rush

Love it -- love it -- love it --
love. Love. LOVE.
hahaha... excellent! my first thought, live one day in my shoes, but now I remember...
none of us are truly alone.
being with ones self truly is a blessing, ecspecially when we can appreciate it! :)
Thanks for sharing, that was awesome!
Love her poetry put to music. This was lyrical, beautiful. (And I'm just a little jealous of her, sitting on park benches, walking train tracks, knitting, playing guitar, alone, alone...)
Yea, saw this one on facebook and loved it. It's sad and happy at the same time.
Wow! That was great. I nearly didn't watch it . . and now I'm glad I did. It's made my smile reach across my face to both my ears and my eyes have crinkled (with a smidgen of tears). Maggie, thank you for finding it and posting it on your blog. (To say I lurk here a lot! is an understatement - your writing touches my heart, so thank you for that too).
I've seen this before. I think it's fantastic. Thanks for reminding me.
I've seen this around. And I don't know where I was reading some discussion regarding it, but I had to agree. Where did the idea come that being a woman who is alone and doesn't need a guy or a companion or a posse of girlfriends or whatever is bad , or hard, or not socially acceptable. I kind of found it a step backwards in a sense.
Initially I was all..oh this is so so beautiful
And then I realized, wait . I don't get where the problem was to begin with. Is it a reflection of our super plugged in social society now. Which of course I'm too old to be a part of so don't get this angst.
( and thanks for being someone I knew I could be honest with here )
this is so special. thanks for sharing, I'm reposting for my friends :)
love this
i needed that today. funny how that happens.
Thank you for posting this! I really loved watching it and soaking in its message.
Enjoy your weekend :)
I do love that video, as a mom of 3 I dont get many moments of silence and solitude
Yes! This is awesome! Also saw this via one of my favorite mommy bloggers, Rebecca of GirlsGoneChild.net!
Wish I had seen this 15 years ago...;)
this is very nice
Oh my god, I loved that.
Amen.
This is just amazing - I often sit and have coffee by myself, or walk about...but so many more things and ways to get out and about alone - and not be seen as loneliness being a problem...maybe the time is also a gift
this has totally lifted my spirits. beautiful.
