Dear Ones,

A TREK TO CHILAO

Yesterday, in the early afternoon, I thought: It has been so long since I visited the Angeles Crest. Maybe I will go and walk there.

Yearnings of the heart are hard to countermand. Despite the lateness of the hour, I undertook the trek.

What wonderful days are these! Sunlight till nearly 7 pm! The air, bright with the scent of pine, struck through with the sharp trill of hidden, winged beings.

At the far end of the picnic grounds, a trail appeared. Old asphalt, littered with pine cones. Dust of trod pine needles snuffling upwards, into my exultant lungs.

What a fire went through here! What a swath of fallen timber. Long time now since that red wild carnage laid trunk upon blue black trunk, clogging the creek bed, crowding the trail sides, or stayed by their living brethren from that final fall.

Flowers! I thought … Flowers that follow the forest fire? Long time looking, but flowers there were none.

Only ochre rounds of stumps, beetle hieroglyphics scrawled on unbarked twigs, and memories, falling down into my heart, of that last phone call to my mother.

This video shows the scene, sans the story, but accompanied by the music of Chris Zabriskie. As there are no words, the Summary contains only the Credits …

Dear Ones,

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

I was traveling out West one time. And on the clair plane, I met a man who said …

“Out here, we bury them where they fall,
With a dead leaf for a grave marker,
And we never breathe a word of it.”

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

Dear Ones,

A video for the Friday before Easter. A Summary follows the video …

VIDEO BY ALICE

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.

On this Friday before Easter, I have a Call to Action nationwide. I would like to request that Homeland Security be repurposed as Homeless Security, and that Homeboy Industries be repurposed as Homeless Industries … so that we, as nation can solve the issues of homelessness and joblessness in the United States.

God bless you all, on this Friday before the celebration of Christ Arisen.
