This is my week to celebrate turning and being 75 years old. A friend reminds me that we read the book The Second Half of Life by Angeles Arrien when we turned 50. My friend is re-visiting the book, and so now am I. Its meaning is both different and the same as 25 years ago. We are a process after all. We are verbs, not nouns. And as the body says “I am a fiesta,” I feel more clearly the unifying fiesta of body, mind, and spirit. How glorious it is to be alive and aware of each moment as precious, and a gift.
Eduardo Galeano – in Walking Words
The Church says: The body is a sin.
Science says: The body is a machine.
Advertising says: The body is a business.
The body says: I am a fiesta.
