I’ve been wanting to make good on my promise to share newly-discovered blogs that I am enjoying. So here are a few that I want to recognize and recommend:
Apocalypse Poet – Original poems from an irreverent young voice. Sometimes playful, sometimes cranky. Always alive.
Daily Echo – OK. I’m a sucker for blogging by dogs. What can I say? I find Sue’s “Notes from a Small Dog” riveting. Cutacious.
The Direction of Intention – daily observations from a complicated artist/storyteller/nomad. Smart and sticky writing.
Life As Improv – Peripatetic forays in nondualism and the nature of consciousness. With improv inspirations and reflections on motherhood.
I look forward to discovering and sharing more blogs like these. And I want to say thank you to all of you bloggers who bring such presence and authenticity to your offerings. I value your voices. I would like to honor your efforts with this poem by David Whyte, which has been much on my mind lately. For you:
Loaves and Fishes
This is not
the age of information.This is not
the age of information.Forget the news,
and the radio,
and the blurred screen.This is the time
of loaves
and fishes.People are hungry
and one good word is bread
for a thousand.
Deep, face plant bow for the sharing, Ruth! Feeling a connection in so many of your words in every post, throughout. “Peripatetic” – thank you for a word gift, today
Much gratitude for your blogging, Marga! And I meant “peripatetic” in the very best way.
