I'm loving the idea of your creativity - especially upcycling.

I feel a bit guilty about feeling so happy and contented with my lot (though it be rather humble compared to some, still, I have myriad blessings for which to be grateful) and agree - being alone is not synonymous with loneliness. I refer back to Big John's recent comments on another thread about animism, and the loving ties I feel for the natural world. I feel deeply sorry for those not so well equipped for being alone.

      We are never alone
    as we talk to the stone

       We are never alone
        as we talk to a tree

        We are never alone
   as we talk to the Universe.


           We are blessed
               by having
                so many
               to talk to.
