And that ain't half bad. <br /><br />Let us call to the resilient and the bony, the graceful and the high cackle, those who go hand in hand, feeling self and each other more or less mixed, and a special nod to any dear beast with more than one back.~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17851927354854685540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-66739568987528587692010-07-22T18:55:24.841-07:002010-07-22T18:55:24.841-07:00This made my day- and it was a day that needed mak...This made my day- and it was a day that needed making!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181529277715646835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-63517965025056086312010-07-22T18:49:28.800-07:002010-07-22T18:49:28.800-07:00Call me nuts, but I daresay Maeve still has more t...Call me nuts, but I daresay Maeve still has more to tell. Don't forget, from your own comments in articles long past, that you had other ideas for her when she was Madge. Maybe in the sense that the sacred feminine is eternal, Maeve too has other journeys to undertake. Maybe there's still a Gulf War to fight, and a final retirement as an artist who supports herself in true Vine and Fig Tree style in Maine. Who knows? Never underestimate yourself, or the power of imagination.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-74494094733699345852010-07-22T11:49:29.657-07:002010-07-22T11:49:29.657-07:00Yes.

She holds a spot on my altar, as does Elizabeth. I like to think that it was Maeve, whose temple kept the wine flowing, planted the seed for my first drink at 33 and made me aspire to live in a world where the wine is always flowing. Moreso, I'm learning--daily--to receive the stranger. You both are responsible for this new chapter...that is turning out to be quite long.<br /><br />So know that on the 22nd, I will have a bottle of red ready to consume--a peach ready to be tasted...and I will do my best to find someplace to be naked.<br /><br />I love you Maeve--and Elizabeth.Tim Dillingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12584034700993656455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-42632484239348976602010-07-21T07:05:29.391-07:002010-07-21T07:05:29.391-07:00Ay, eat a peach, drink some wine! ... a jug of win...Ay, eat a peach, drink some wine! ... a jug of wine, a loaf of bread and thou beside me singing in the wilderness...<br /><br />Incarnation is a wonderful thing. Maeve knows it; as the Magdalen she knows it; I know it, too.<br /><br />Too many in the churches wish to deny it. It's too bad Maeve/Magdalen was pushed aside by Peter and Paul, but we can right the imbalance. Now.<br /><br />Viva St. Maeve's day!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942539860342568543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-69333960723326925752010-07-21T04:34:36.458-07:002010-07-21T04:34:36.458-07:00A glorious post!

I will celebrate your incarnation and my incarnation - the I AM of life...<br />i will also celebrate the generous and wonderful Elizabeth who bought you here my erstwhile cousin whose incarnation i am particularly glad about too!faerianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17585095937433199961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-13587733961701909642010-07-20T22:50:02.897-07:002010-07-20T22:50:02.897-07:00Wow, what a beautiful post.

It is odd to think that there is actually a time when she didn't exist in the physical.<br /><br />"On July 22nd dare to eat a peach. Swim naked. Open your palms to the sun, rain and wind. Stand barefoot in the dirt. Give thanks for your incarnation." Gorgeous--thank you for this, and absolutely!!!<br /><br />(By the way, I can't help but feel it a huge connection that my first born's birthday is July 21st, and her name is Madeleine. She will be 8 tomorrow! Clearly something has been wanting me to celebrate Ms. Magdalen all along!)Brooke https://www.blogger.com/profile/16569793565975815862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7287418096544149672.post-45778584048281882372010-07-20T15:11:01.398-07:002010-07-20T15:11:01.398-07:00Maeve speaking: Twenty years!?!

Incarnation certainly isn't, but it doesn't have to be to be celebrated. As my erstwhile enemy/friend Paulina would say: "L'Chaim y'all.
