A common space for harmonic peacemakers
- Maurice Béjart - Boléro De Ravel - (last part)
The Muses in myth, Function in society, Function in literature
Muse reading a scroll, perhaps Clio -
The Muses Clio, Euterpe, and Thalia, by Eustache Le Sueur
Melpomene and Polyhymnia, Palacio de Bellas Artes, Mexico
Gustave Moreau, Hesiod and the Muse (1891) - Musée d'Orsay, Paris
"Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns driven time and again off course, once he had plundered the hallowed heights of Troy."
O Muses, O high genius, aid me now! O memory that engraved the things I saw, Here shall your worth be manifest to all!
Muse, American marble statue, artist unknown (c. 1820) - Baltimore Museum of Art

I am so small I can barely be seen.
How can this great love be inside me?
Look at your eyes, they are small but they
see enormous things.

Thanks +++ for this last post, Eva.
I'm happy to be a little but bright candle in the middle of so many.
Love and Peace for all Beings
Every thought you produce, anything you say, any action you do, it bears your signature. You are like a candle. Imagine you are sending Light out all around you. All your words, thoughts and actions are going in many directions. If you say something kind, your kind words go in many directions, and you yourself go with them. We are transforming and continuing in a different form at any moment.
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
"PEACE
NOT WAR
GENEROSITY
NOT GREED
EMPATHY
NOT HATE
CREATIVITY
NOT DESTRUCTION
EVERYBODY
NOT JUST US"
