all doors open 11 11 spider medicine

at eleven eleven on may sixth in my kitchen a spider came to say hello
we had just wrapped up the eleventh circle
eleven being spider's number
the number of mastery....on our way
the number eleven says all doors are open
we made a stop motion film together
eight of us were present in human form
one in feline
and i am not sure how many in spirit
the room was full and all the doors and windows were wide open
we talked about the making of the film and what land means to each of us
what does land mean to you?
what is your connection to land?
the youthful humans said they were land.
they come from it and they will return.
I feel the same. yet I am still processing.
we listened to Mandaza an elder from Zimbabwe
he took us on a journey and we listened and brainstormed about how to animate his words.
perhaps we will open the film with his words on peace and love.
Ron Cook suggested this....open it like star trek....to go where no one has gone before...

this is a new process for me
we are embarking on a community made film....to go where no one has gone before...
I wonder what the process is
what is this project about?
where is it taking us?
why?
and then I remember that we are part of the movement towards peaceful living.
we are one of the points in the web.
from that point of light we spiral out and form many more points in the web
we have joined the movement of humans working towards peaceful living
we are optimistic, enthusiastic, we say yes, we will participate
we garden, we make art, we make music, we make food, we grow food, we listen, we play, we work, we sleep, we love, we are, we drink water, we laugh, we try our best
