(..............9 Sept) A Hymn To The Earth Comments

Hi again Max! My feet responded to this! I often feel sensations under my feet and it's as if they are telling me about the soil, the rocks, the world far away. We are so connected and so wasteful. Once again you touch on what matters. love, Linda

Marci Made (9/8/2007 11: 31: 00 AM) I echo Tara's comment that this is a very pensive write. It's deep and touches on important things that we ordinarily wouldn't think about...like our feet on the ground [well except when burned on hot sand or such] You appear to have decided to do things differently for yourself as well, working to be the best you can. Just an excellent write. ~~mm.xo~~ T McH (9/8/2007 11: 19: 00 AM) Max, this strikes me as a (wonderfully penned) pensive tribute. The reader can't help but come away agreeing, contemplating and making resolutions. Quite apart from the content, the structure is conducive to that. Clever. It's top notch. t x
