place half-remembered and half-envisioned we can only catch glimpses
of from time to time: Community. Somewhere, there are people to whom
we can speak with passion without the words catch in our throats.
Somewhere a circle of hands will open to receive us, eyes will light
up as we enter, and voices will celebrate with us whenever we come
into our own power. Community means strength that joins our strength
to do the work that needs to be done. Arms to hold us when we falter.
A circle of healing. A circle of friends. Someplace where we can be
free. - Starhawk

These words are particularly meaningful to me, and encompass how I felt in India. I don't have a picture of the finished quote, but there are two traced hands - one is mine, the other is Pinalben's.

Pinal drew mehndi on them, and the cool thing is that one of the mehndi designs decorated my own hands while I was in India :)

today i made a fairly large decision,
