The most recent work recalls cognitive shift and clarity, the recognition of energetic awareness….as when buried emotion comes into focus. At once, awkward and uplifting, these moments of instability are our call to change, to process and to soften our reactions to one another and our environment.

And as I look around and realize that at once we are all experiencing great joy, sorrow, tragedy and chaos, it is the event of circumstance in our shared lives that allow us to really know one another.

Our reactions to crisis, our thoughtful interventions, our insightful views…make us heavy, show us the meaning of pain, but force us to be real. And allow us the gift of observing transcendence… in total experience, the weighty can produce the light.
