The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

A touch of Spring

It has been a long tough winter. Look at the pictures I posted last week. Today it was 60 in the sun and the crocuses popped up. Even though we are in for snow tonight, it is a clear sign of things to come.Just to go outside and bask in the sun felt so good. I laughed out loud. It reminded me of standing outside for the first rain of the season last year in San Agustin. I'm sure it is one of the universal human feelings, the joy of the end of a tough season. Plants and animals feel it as well. I believe they call it euphoria.
