Whee! Thanks for the tip, [livejournal.com profile] solarfields, I had no Idea that Kate Bush was coming out with a new album. I loooooooooooove her. It's been 12 years!!! She is one of my absolute favorites, brilliant in a way I feel is unmatched except by bjork. I have cassettes, memorized the songs, sing along to everything while priming pieces in my studio, driving in my car. Swept away by the atmospheric music, theatrical voice modulations..the Stories she tells in each song. The Kick Inside, The Dreaming, Hounds of Love...oh I could go on and on.('This Woman's Work' makes me cry everytime I sing along). I remember 12 years ago, waiting out in the cold on a superlong line on my birthday Dec.9th...outside Tower Records in NYC to meet her and have her sign my 2 books. She was exhausted obviously but it was still a thrill/honor. Ah, Kate. She is my musical Anais Nin. And now, today, her new DOUBLE CD is in my hand. in my hand. full of mystery.

Most of us give on impulse. It's wonderful when we are suddenly moved to action...by a cause that crosses our personal path or is presented strongly by the media. But I think we all know something is still not working. There is SO much suffering in this world that I feel is completely avoidable...stemming from lack of attention. We are aghast when we hear of it. Yet it is the daily life of so many. And those working/volunteering in these areas feel forgotten and alone while the masses go on with life. We need something drastic, and I honestly think the 10% idea is it. One person doing that is nice, eighteen people...very nice,... but imagine thousands. Constantly. Mathematically.In every financial level, sending help like a pulse to where it is needed. Yes, it could change the world.read more )
