"Unable To Find The Specified Listing"

   Sun, May 11, 2008 - 11:46 AM



a few hours ago i posted
(or so i thought)
a happy muther's day listing
and i am surprised to discover now
that it may not be published

so here goes again . . .

yeah, it's that important to me
and no, i didn't save a copy of the original submission
so who knows what i said the 1st time around

ironically this is the day that more phone calls are placed on this planet
than any other so-called holiday
and yet
it will most likely be the day in which i do not
speak with those i love on the phone
also, it strikes me as humorous that i updated my profile with my theme song just yesterday

may your day
YOUR EVERY DAY
be filled with live-giving, nuturing, devouring
motherly protecting
of that which is fruit-full and fertile

sometimes that is found in silence*

love,
aurelia

* initially, i thought of doing a mass tribe invitation
to "theeveryoneontribetribe," with this mother's day
greeting embedded therein... and noticed that those
broadcasts can only be done in threes... so... thank yew,
red heads of the world unite, fur the ID'er

i'm sorry that mothers day comes and you expect no calls . knowing ahead of time that no calls will come is even worse than finding at the end of the day that no calls came . i know . . your dignity , love , caring , comes thru in the clear deep tone of your words, sweet aurelia . . i can tell already you are loved by many of us here on the group w bench [from arlo guthrie's alice's restaurant ? dont know what i's talkin about, let me know, i'll explain - its funny] .... so, happy-absolutely-the-middle-of-may day, aurelia !

i am happy


the funny thing to me is that expecting no calls
is NOT a sad thing for me...
much to my surprise,
many peeps wrote to say they thought i was sad
when in fact i was, and i am gloriously HAPPY
(it's always HAPPY when i have no expectations
other than to remain in a state of happiness!)

so, gee, now that i revisit this,
i see how one might think sadness
(what i see in the picture is relaxation, warm, fuzzy, wink, wink)

oh, and what also struck me as funny
is that i posted
(concurrently with the mother's day greeting)
a youtube on my profile page
which emphasizes us humans speaking up...
... even if we say "too much" ...
as long as it's with our HEART WIDE OPEN...
(bucket list...great movie, btw)

and yet, my initial plan was to invite everyone here:

tribes.tribe.net/theeveryoneontribetribe

which is usually how i start out and end my day . . . in silence
(it's so loud when we listen to the present moment)

thank you for your loverly comments!

and all of you who PM’ed me… thanx!!!
