Otherwise, I am still working full time and very busy! I am excited about projects at Bristol Community College - I am planning a"developmental reading institute" for instructors with limited academic background in developmental reading for August. Was chatting with old friend Ginny who reminded me that supporting greater literacy is essential for a functioning democracy! I do my small piece.
We are VERY excited that we will be taking another trip to England - we have friends (Mare and Lisa!) moving there for a year, so we will visit them in London. We are also taking Madelin, our 11 year old niece, and will be going over to Paris for several days (her dream - what else for a fashionista named Madelin...) We are so lucky to be able to do this - will tell all as I travel!
Finally, I am expanding my consciousness through the "Expressive Arts Institute" I am attending at Slave Regina University in Newport, RI. As I explore using visual arts, movement and sound to tap into the world of my unconscious, to creativity and the power of imagination to heal, I am energized and amazed at the revelations. I am exploring the work being done to link art with healing - the powerful evidence that using expression, speaking from our right brain, from our intuition reinforces the immune system and helps to usher diseases like cancer to their natural demise. I draw, dance and sing with these errant cells to guide them towards the cell death (Apoptosis) they deserve!
I promise to write again sooner - happily, life goes on oh blah di.... xxxxxx
