“In mythos and fairy tales, deities and other great spirits test the hearts of humans by showing up in various forms that disguise their divinity. They show up in robes, rags, silver sashes, or with muddy feet. They show up with skin dark as old wood, or in scales made of rose petal, as a frail child, as a lime-yellow old woman, as a man who cannot speak, or as an animal who can. The great powers are testing to see if humans have yet learned to recognize the greatness of soul in all its varying forms.” —Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Good Sleep
Discovered this group and song through my friend Aron's blog make it easy. This is the video I saw on YouTube. However, for a real treat (and how it should have been really done) go to Aron's blog and his video take on it.

Out of nowhere and for no particular reason, I've been dreaming of Cairo again.
You burst into a
million seeds,
poured over the hot
stove of rancour,
Cairo.
When the walls no longer
withstood your curses,
you awakened the streets
with your boots,
Cairo.
Your cries brought the
sky down at Tahrir Square,
the Pharaoh shook
in his dreams,
Cairo.
With you the square
was a fortress of the heart,
engraved in
rebellion’s calligraphy,
Cairo.
