Steve Jobs died this week. It is so sad, he was far too young.He gave us so much, and enriched our lives, our Communication. He made computers accessible for so many, he made them fun, creative and a way to connect.For me, someone who would load up the car with bags of library books, it gave me a "place to go",and for my son that lovely Bondi Blue iMac in 1998 opened up the world for him.....Steve was our Columbus pushing for the next horizon, he was our Leonardo creating what we could only dream of, he was our Edison always focused on what The People needed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tonight I light Candles and Incense and Say Goodbye to Good Soul...a Lovely Soul....a Troubled Soul. I found out tonight from a friend ( Helen Wheels) that Liquid died on Christmas Eve....you can click to the title to learn more about the circumstances....I don't totally understand, but my heart aches that she was heavily troubled and that she ended her path, her journey. She must have been in such heavy hearted pain....she was always so funny and sharp on the blogs, quick with a joke or a snarky perspective...she made us laugh and smile.
So to honor her I ask that we be kinder to each other...and more gentle, less judgemental...that we check on each other more, Connect More....Listen Better...Treasure the Laughter....and Treasure Each Other...Alot of people are hurting right now, there is much pain out there with 8 years of hellish times and the homes and job issues are critical and painful, we need to be mindful and compassionate with each other.......I dedicate this song tonight " Somewhere Out There" ( Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram), I think the lyrics are just right for some reason.....that we take the time to offer support and let People know they matter and are special and that we are "out there" for each other....Namaste.
