From Ivan Granger:
"I am so pleased to announce that the
Poetry Chaikhana is offering a beautiful new card set of
sayings and short poems.
It is a collection of several of my
"thought for the day" sayings and a few short poems, with
artwork by Rashani Réa of Dharma Gaia Cards."

Believe
in a love that is being stored up for you
like
an inheritance, and have faith that in this love
there
is a strength and a blessing so large that
you
can travel as far as you wish
without
having to step outside it.
-Rainer Maria
Rilke

Imagine this :
perhaps the most important street photographer of the
twentieth century was a nanny who kept everything to
herself.
Nobody had ever
seen her work and she was a complete unknown until the
time of her death.
For decades
Vivian’s work hid in the shadows until decades later
(in 2007), historical hobbyist John Maloof bought a
box full of never developed negatives at a local
auction for $380.

Encore:
Wendell Berry, Poet & Prophet
In a rare
television interview, environmental legend and writer
Wendell Berry
leaves his
Kentucky farm for an inspiring conversation.
The
world and our life in it are conditional gifts. We
have the world to live in and the use of it on the
condition that we will take good care of it"
Berry
tells Bill. “And to know it and to be willing to
take care of it, we have to love it.”
I wish to heartily recommend watching this show.
Wendell Berry is a true voice of sanity.
