The solitude and quiet of stitching.
The results of that.
The surprising results
and FUN of that.
Child's play
Even when 298 innocent civilians die in a plane. How else to go on?
I took all the photos off my dad's bulletin board and put up one of him with us three little kids..
What else can I do?
They resisted virtuoistiy,
denied the aesthetic of privilege,
re-thought culture
because after the holocaust,
what kind of culture could just go on?
Humans need to nourish themselves by making.
I need to do these things.
Hand made objects show a way.

Your fingers are wonderful wings, what else should they do but fly.
Amen sister.

ZHOBEYD@....
The healing of creative work... yes. I am presently reading Christian McEwen's book, "World Enough & Time" and there is a story of how a man in Buchenwald starts reciting poetry. It strikes a chord and soon many, many people start reciting poems. It becomes a thing one man does, standing on something in the mid-day. He notices that, for one small instant when the people are immersed in listening, that things have shifted, that they are almost happy. So, yes, what else to do but feed beauty?
