I miss the wireman. I had a sad feeling that I will not jam with him again.

interesting that you feature mark wireman here of all places.
i hear you.
you never know jack, you never know where or how mark will find himself jamming. could be that keeping the jamming fire burning is exactly what is required. may s/he who needs a welcome, find the warmth of thistles and marigolds

creativity is the master plan
plan b includes doin it some more
where there's a spontaneous artistic spark
there's hope for group joy
I forgot the name of the jam you wrote that on, I think it was Don't Beat me Down Lift Me Up.
Thank you judi
Beats me amiga :wink:

I been wondering what it is good for.

What to remember, what to forget
if only I could control that
any day now I shall be released

Sorry if I sounded like I was complaining. I am grateful for the gift. I am gaining control over it. Infantile memories, can we remember how helpless we felt.

Thanks for taking the time to reply

I wish I could afford to accept doreen's gift of S8.
I hope she can find someone to take it over.
If not we still have thistles and marigolds
I just want what's best for her, if she needs to let it go, just let it go, I like hearing she is taking care of herself. And I wonder about Clay how he is, I am afraid to ask.

So I keep doing it
like sucking on a cigarette

and telling myself it is working
I am getting enlightened more everyday I understand I am more aware,
but I am backing away from life

hard truth
still falling free


"unless their personal level of distress reaches a certain unendurable point"


not unendurable yet
but by then it will be too late for me I think...

I had a vision today of me feeling better,
I got to hold onto that no matter what

feel the miracle
seep into awareness
either laughter or tears

it is something to live
something to give recieve
perfection is sharing
the laughter and the tears


I want to float above my emotions
on a miraculous flying carpet of compassion
