This soooo wonderful. I’ve come back over and over to read it. It does something…reminds me of something I used to do. It tickles my soul. Somehow it makes me feel like, just for a moment, I have found and tapped into ‘my thing’, which I’m trying to discover. It was a wonderful peaceful feeling and memory and filled me with joy.

Thank you.

The BEST (adult)bedtime story/mythic fable I’ve ever read.

“Feeling foolish, I mumbled into the darkness: Here, stories! Here, stories!

No, she cried. If you want your stories to find you, you must call them with all the love and longing in your heart. They must know you need them. You must want them more than anything in the world. When you can’t live without them, they will come to you. Call them like a child calling his mother in the middle of the night. Like a lover calling her beloved when he returns from a long journey. Like your lungs calling your breath home.”

Lyrically, exquisitely, stunningly, unavoidably true. And sooo much better than the gruff and grumbly ‘get out of your story’ stuff so common these days.

Brava, Ms. Muse. I declare this the most meaningful post of my week, and my heart thanks you.

Leah, your painting is so powerful, and so very beautiful. Thank you for posting the link to it. Last year, a pod of gray whales swam through the strait in front of my house, on their spring migration. They are incredible beings. Your painting resonates with their essential mystery. Leonie darling, I have indeed written a couple of published books, and am in the process of writing another. I'd also love to read a Goddess Leonie book, filled with your stories. Franis, yes! :-) Hiro Boga´s last blog post..Swimming In the Sea of Story

Hi Hiro – so nice to find a treasure just down island from me.

This lovely post brought to my mind Salman Rushdie’s book “Haroun and the Sea of Stories.” If you haven’t read it, I think you’d enjoy it. Here’s a quote: ““Anybody can tell stories….Liars, and cheats, and crooks, for example. But for stories with that Extra Ingredient, ah, for those, even the best storytellers need the Story Waters.”
