Here's a relevent poem that I read when I was a teenager. I can't tell you what I thought of it as a teenager, I wasn't much of a thinker, but I was a boo-hoo-er. http://people.tribe.net/ddd823a2-a382-4594-b5b5-fdfeb020f118/blog/e6b37f34-ecc5-42e9-85c4-dea4c6e7158d Yeah, I suppose I could recall a weary grief soaked sound or two if I tried.

May the Grief roll freely once again like silver rainclouds regrowing a living heart in the fertile soils of longing! Let's grieve! By the by, for all Grievers, a wonderful Grief Teacher, bringing a ritual from her native Dagara Tribe in Burkina Faso, Sobonfu Some (www.sobonfu.com), is leading a Grief Ritual at Rowe Conference Center on April 18-20. I did two rituals when I was going through a powerful transition in my life, and I grieved from the very pit of my being for two days...I came out reborn!!!! Could I possibly be more honored to have my wierd sounds and snotty-face weeping become an offering to others! Thanks Willem, I'm honored.

This makes me wanna cry. In fact, just thinking about "the sound' sort of puts a smile on my face, a deep feelings in my heart, and a rumbling in my blood that I can't control, that I don't want to control. I just remembered that I always feel better after I cry/grieve, like unneed weight has released off my shoulders. And, that comment, I must ask my self, "Have I ever felt worse after I let go?" Hm.... "If you have a private place where you can go, perhaps a quiet room, or a green place with a tree to lean up against, you might experiment with adding the sound to your practice of paying daily attention to yourself and the world." I got a few and wanna try. Now I just gotta remember with all my other daily skill upkeep. :) Wow, heavy! This makes me wanna cry.
