Can’t think of a better way to start what promises to be another challenging week with a super relaxing viewing of beautiful Kari performing those signature deep stretches. Beauty,grace and strength all rolled up in one very special lady. ☺️

Well, I was close. I don't know much about Irish Dance beyond having seen Riverdance. I'm sure I would have enjoyed watching you.

I was an Irish Dancer for many years 🤗🌹 Thank you for your kind compliments and I appreciate the Beatles reference 🥰

Thank you. That was generous. That is consistent with what I think I know about Stoicism. It raises several questions for me, but I won't bore you with them. They are mine to wrestle with.
One other thing I'm curious about. Your extraordinary flexibility must be a result from long standing and serious training. And, as the Beatles once said, There's "something in the way she moves." That something is grace, fluidity, and elegance. It makes me think you have a background in either gymnastics or ballet. Do you?
All the best, O

Beautiful, thank you for sharing. In the stoic point of view, death is seen and welcomed as natural, a necessary cost for the cycle of life to continue. 🌹 In my own view of death, I think to the phrase " virtus junxit mors non separabit" which translates to "What virtue has joined together, death shall not separate" 🌹

Okay. I like this. I like you. Stoicism has its points.. "Never say I have lost it, only that I have given it back." But it doesn't have a position on the afterlife that I know about. Educate me. I wish you dobro utero which my parents would have said before they poisoned the blood of America by creating me. It means I wish you the best in life.

Thanks for completing the poem. It's a beautiful summary of life. The only line with which I disagree is the last. I do think death is a parenthesis. The irony is cummings already knows if he's right and doesn't have a clue if he's wrong. I, on the other hand, will have no clue if I'm right, and will definitely know if I'm wrong. C'est le vie. All the best, O.

That is beautiful, thank you kindly 🌹 I must include the remainder of that poem as it is wholly a piece of art. His expression and exploration of punctuation beyond what was accepted in the realm of poetry In his time is inspirational. And so it continues:
wholly to be a fool while Spring is in the world
my blood approves, and kisses are a better fate than wisdom lady i swear by all flowers. Don’t cry —the best gesture of my brain is less than your eyelids’ flutter which says
we are for each other: then laugh, leaning back in my arms for life’s not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis

Hey Mr. O. I'd never heard of Cummings before your post, but after a bit of research, I must say, I like his work... Thanks O!

I've run out of words. So I'll borrow some from my favorite poet.
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

Beautifully done! However, your obvious attempts at modesty, throughout your session, are futile... for I am an OF. Fellas, if you don't know, go find out! The extra you get there is like a warm cup of ghee on a cold winters night.😉 The best to you, dear Kari... and as always... Thank you!

Sigh...I could watch you forever, I swear. And your outfit reminds me of a ballerina performing onstage. You are exquisite. I hope it's warmed up down in TX by now. ❤️🥰❤️
