Phew!

Last Friday was hard. It is one thing to turn up, another to maintain presence of mind when so much is currently changing in my personal life. However Thalassa and Menousis (perpetual motion) had their first live happening and were great to sing - as was Joc Leagane.

Singing is salvatory for me. But my sense of holding the circle was that I lost solidity and felt somewhat ragged at the close where we usually feel gathered. There were other factors - and I guess I just have to accept that this is how we were this night.
A couple of days later I recall this blog - by chance - and write this much. I pass my 50th birthday today. What does that mean?
