this morning, i happened upon another blog (www.myspace.com/opti-mystic) that asked three interesting questions, so i'm copyiny them here, and ask you all to share, if you will...
a life-altering event, the movie you most identify with, and a song that's most you....
here's my answers.
other than the births of my children, i would have to say that the most recent life-altering event was the weekend my best friend's husband died in a car accident. i had such a strong premonition about a car accident and death - i even thought it was me who was going to die - that i could no longer ignore the Gift.
the movie i identify with is chocolat - i like to think i bring a little magic into peoples' lives... and it never hurts to fantasize about johnny depp as an irish gypsy ;).
the song - raglan road....
on raglan road, one autumn day, i saw him first and knew
that his dark hair would weave a snare that i would one day rue
i saw the danger, and yet i passed along the enchanted way,
and i said, let Grief be a falling leaf at the dawning of the day...
on grafton street in november, we tripped lightly along the ledge
of a deep ravine where can be seen the words of passions pledged.
the queen of hearts still making tarts, and i not making hay...
oh, i loved too much - by such, by such is happiness thrown away...
i gave him gifts of the mind, i gave him the secret sign
known to all the artists who have known true gods of sound and time
and words of tint, i did not stint, i gave him poems to say
with his own name there, and his long dark hair, like clouds over fields of may...
on a quiet street, where old ghosts meet, i see him walking on
away from me so hurridly, my reason must allow
that i had wooed not as i should, a creature made of clay
when the angel woos the clay, she looses her wings at dawn of day....
and furthermore, the war must end. blessed be.
