We pull together - in our hours of need.
Finally asking for help.
Banding together
because there is no other way.
We support one another
in our growth and our healing.
The planet needs us now.
We need US now.
There is no other way.
And, it's not an easy or convenient path.
It's uncomfortable terrain - exposing one's underbelly
and vulnerability.
Yet, it's what the world needs now.
And, we dance and we sing through it all
because there is nothing else to do.
There is nothing else to do
but hold each other, lick our wounds
and keep moving forward - a little more intact
and a whole lot more together.
There is nothing more.
(Xavier Rudd's song as performed by Liz, Matt & Shae
at Liz's Benefit and Live Music Jam at Mama Tam's Thai Food
Restaurant in Normal Heights last Saturday night.)
