The end of '08Wow. What a year. What more can we say?
Ok, a lot, but for now, let's just say wow. Keeping it, for this post, in our microcosm of the universe, we start in earnest January 1 to set up the national release of the new record. Thanks for all your words of support along the way, without which it would've been a longer, harder road. Thanks also to all who pre-ordered in November. If you missed it, you'll have another chance coming soon. We located an archive of the journal posts during the recording of the record, achives courtesy of Hostbaby, and will post those soon, for the record. Pun intended. :) In the Chapters section, (see in the above navigation Bar) I've started some creative writings and I hope, if you like to read, you'll feel welcome to pay that page a visit. As always, we love love to hear from you. We read every email and every post, so, feel free to drop us a line or post in the guestbook ('Talk to Us' page) Have a happy and blessed holiday. See you in a very new, very welcome fresh start of a new year. Love and Peace to us all Words and voicesWhat we can't do alone we can do together.
Interesting how some words, cliches even, can suddenly have resonance. I turn on the news and my grandmother's voice pops into my head. A stitch in time saves nine. Oh well. Too late for that one. Whole lotta stitchin goin on now. History is not always obvious when we're in it. Moments...flash frames...sometimes we don't know til we're well on down the road, and look back over a shoulder, that a moment happened that's indelibly etched. Other times it's suddenly, spontaeously obvious to everyone at once. Everywhere people stand and mark a moment. I hear my mother's voice, long gone now, saying 'there's no time like the present'. My father's voice whispering the word 'hope'. Oh yeah, hope. I remember that. Sometimes we don't see how much we were losing til someone gives it back. Well, waste not, want not. There's no time like the present. Nine hundred thousand stitches in time saves nine hundred million. What we can't do alone we can do together |
