"Can We Dance Now?"

I am most fortunate to be living with a talented artist who is inspiring my spiritual life in so many ways. Even though we are in the suburbs of northern Virgina, somehow we simultaneously exist in the spiritual world, running through lush green pastures with milk bucket and daisies in hand.

As of late, we have been preparing for Radha Sakhi's 4th grade dance performance to Stevie Wonder's Sir Duke. You can feel it all over! My brother believes Stevie Wonder should be the U.N. Ambassador of Education. In the liner notes of Stevie Wonder's album Songs in the Key of Life, he explains his philosophy as that of love mentalism. In one interview he explains that as "a positive tomorrow for all people, where we do not just talk about love or just feel it as a temporary thing, but really relate to it as something that lasts forever in our hearts and in our spirits and in the way that we do and our character." I offer my humble obeisances to Stevie Wonder, a true spiritual warrior.

"You may give them your love but not your thought, for they have their own thoughts. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth."
