Always a creative journey

From the New Yorker Magazine

It's the poet Ted Hughes who was once asked in an interview if poetry is something that gives hope. He replied: "For myself, I formulated the notion that art is in general a psychological component of the immune system. As the body tries to heal itself from any stress or shock or infection, the corresponding harmonic, in consciousness, is art. So our constant struggle to pull ourselves together and to deal with difficulty and injury and illness and with threats and fears, manifests itself - at a psychological level - as art. We may not think at the moment that it's the most valuable thing we do, but of any past civilization it's the one thing we want to preserve, because it still operates for us as medicine."

Back from a fabulous month in Bali. To all those patient people inquiring about upcoming events in February, thank you! The Bali Retreat Review and photos will be presented in the April Newsletter.
