The cocoon breaks

Friends,
This is my first entry in this space since joining many months ago. As I'm sure many of you can relate, those of us who are active in the peace movement are pulled in many directions. Raising children, folding laundry, going to work everyday, feeding the fish so they may live another day...these tasks often take precedence over our innate desire to 'be'. The desire to be ourselves that Kat so beautifully articulated with her poetry and song. But the time is ripe with energy for real change. I know you know what I'm talking about. That's why you are here. I am opening myself up to my gift to write and it is here that I begin to share not only with a few carefully selected friends, but with the world. I look forward to our dialogue. Sending you all much peace and love, wendy
