4.5.12 Ma

I am just coming in from a evening of singing (camp songs) and wanted to thank you for giving me such an open authentic childhood where true beauty was let in, seeded, and growing all along, despite long long periods of dormancy. These gifts continue to bring me everlasting peaceful joy and I will be ever grateful to you for opening me to bliss at such a young age. Specifically I speak of Camp Trinity, Moboc, open mindedness, self expression, authenticity of self, art, creativity, questioning "norms", tape recording family gatherings, getting me a drumset, later a guitar, not allowing me to be materialistic by not giving into my demands to buy expensive trendy clothing that would have looked wrong on me, for letting me smoke pot and cigarettes without judgment (or only silly self knowing judgment) so that in good enough time I would come to no longer crave these things, for supporting my writing, attending John Cougar Mellencamp shows with me, Hands Across america, doing body work, taking me to my first yoga lesson, Hollyhock, introducing me to Shamanism, trips to Mexico, shopping in France, taking me to open mike nights, grunion runs, road trips, venice beach, passionate hot dancing music, body love, david sedaris, lemons, lemons, lemons. There's more, but that comes out right now. Thank you deeply.

Bhajamana Ma! xoxoxo
