Bertus, wow! Your writing is so compelling, so authentic and resonates (or maybe it vibrates) - I love it! Thank you so much for sharing

Good to see you here Jill, thank you for your kind words. Would you be willing to share what you like on the StF forum in some way? Help build the audience? If not that’s more than fine too…

this post dances along so lightly, with that playful, lyrical quality that you have. The string metaphor you explored in so many ways, i love it., especially when it went to the fibres of wood and tendons and neural pathways - it's all stringy! The last paragragh - to me points to the pointlessness of taking a stand of no or opposition to all that is. We can't expect music when we take this stand. Does not mean that action to oppose wont occur, but a recognition that it can only be the way it is at this moment and it is always shifting and changing to a new tune, we don't know what life has in store for us on any day.

Hey Renz, thank you so much for the beautiful comment. A slow response here, because I’m very much still finding my way in this space. Very motivated here to keep the writing going and keep receiving feedback…can I use your words and name on the website?

Uhm, somehow sensing I know you from another occasion. But I can’t see by the name or avatar… are my detective skills right in guessing your initials are R.N. and are from the southern hemisphere?
