A Day of Promise A Moment of Oneness Bess Scrabble on the Beach Self Awareness True To Oneself Unsafe Survival Emergency Room Reflection To the NYC Labor Chorus |
ReflectionOne year has quietly sped away since I left home in Brooklyn It is safe here. One eats, sees movies and participates in activities without the need to step outside.Last night the dinner table was fun and stimulating. We were four. We talked about Bergmann's films, one woman's ex-boyfriend and political issues. I heard myself differing from the three politically. Is there a price for this? It is comforting to be in this place of warmth and welcoming. I know so well there is no such thing as freedom. It is so freeing to say what one thinks, but oh, the subsequent distancing, the aloneness that may ensue is to be bound in another set of chains. |
