Last evening Ben, Brian and I went to a session in Donna and Brian’s home (Donna is the one in the photo). It was a lively evening, rooted in Irish traditional music. The evening had a pulse, a heartbeat, of its own. It made me grateful to Donna and Brian, and people like them, who plant their feet firmly on living ground and make space for genuine engagement.

In whatever context true engagement occurs– where there is a conscious, collaborative creative intention– it is during these times in these places that the new, harmonious world takes form.
