Lovely writing. You referenced The Friends Journal, by John Calvi, 1992.
Where can I get a copy of that, it was so touching?

You captured some of my feelings that I cannot put into words, but I could feel your words.
The vision here is one of divine inspiration, and someday, looking back at Heron Dance and the agonies indescrible, personal and nonescapable…unless we choose to pull an addiction in to that cold place for warmth and distraction. Well, some of us have simply hit the wall of, it’s gotta be truth. And truth is within the searing emotions. transformation happens in the kiln. And so, looking back, Annie, I believe you will understand and wholly grasp this passing as necessary to create what you are pushing for now. Fertile ground i have come to learn in reality, is a lengthy process, and sowing the seeds, well, that is hope. But when those seeds start to break open…eeeooowwweeee. I have walked with suicide as a friend, a door, an option if the pain has become too much. Yet have found the strength to wait another day to see what happens. Cause some of us just gotta go thru it. You’ve helped me in such a deep and wildly meaning ful way. I am infinitely grateful and intend to remain within this growing community of evolutionaries. Love Peg
