It’s all up to us, what we do with it. What we do. I’m all for doing what is called for. The trick is knowing what that is. We know when we are imposing ourselves upon the situation, and when we are cooperating with the situation, merging with the situation, being one with the situation, living a part from the situation… How is the fit with our life most often? There is what we want and there is what we serve, assist. There is what we do and there is who we are. The closer doing and being relate to one another, the better off we tend to be in terms of spirit and vitality, the two markers of the quality of our life. The people who have it made are bluegrass musicians jamming on someone’s front porch, or in someone’s back yard.
