A Midsummer’s Night Dream
Hello. I have mused over this newsletter for sometime, feeling like I only wanted to write when I had come up with something worthwhile to say. I may be setting myself up in that last statement, however I now feel sincerely compelled to share my musings with you. Bear with me then, your printed version of this newsletter in hand, relaxing on your deck, fragrant smells, iced drink close by and the beautiful spacious quality of a mid-summers night.
The past few months have been significant for me personally in ways that may have relevance for us all. By giving you a glimpse, I imagine that some of those signifyers may become part of our shared learning/experience.
One of the questions I am most commonly asked by both students and friends is; how has this situation (quadraplegia) changed you and how do you deal with it? People are fascinated and fearful of this predicament and at the same time hopeful that somehow I/they - can/could transform it. Bless our tender and innocent Souls.
