This piece was a bright red exploration of the layers of grief; there is something in the truth telling of those difficult times we individually \u0026amp; collectively faced, that goes beyond our understanding. As we each experience devastating moments (as we do \u0026amp; will), the urge\/the desire\/the will to continue to show up \u0026amp;  'live in the layers, not the litter' is to my mind the seed of a deeper faith \u0026amp; the hope for a different future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe Zen Circle calls me now to simplicity (which doesn't deny the complexity).
