Thanks for the referral.<BR/><BR/>You are correct that I have found the last few days both powerfully educational and emotional.<BR/><BR/>Nothing like feeding the geek and the poet with one experience.<BR/><BR/>Thanks, as always, for your kind and insightful comments, Olivia!Rick Hamrickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09621981388013851089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7263788220250087491.post-47900478871068986262008-05-26T12:27:00.000-06:002008-05-26T12:27:00.000-06:00I am reminded of Lori-Lyn's post this week about the importance of fiction. Stories have a life-changing power. Whole cultures (such as the Hawaiian culture) are based upon story. <BR/><BR/>I agree, Rick, that we have to retain that child-like innocence and joy, all the while knowing that things may not (or will not) turn out as we hope. This play sounds like it illustrated aspects of this so well.<BR/><BR/>Your processing has been rich, hasn't it?!?!<BR/><BR/>Peace and rest and joy,<BR/><BR/>O<BR/><BR/>xxooOliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06058356843151306428noreply@blogger.com
