Thank you. Our friend Robert W posted a similarly inspired piece on Pueblo de los muertos for 5th which I'm sure you will have seen. In the context of my own life, both your words and his have cast light on where & how I've been these past days; particularly in relation with death and remembering. How liberating it is to be able to embrace the Halloween festival & its accompanying rituals from a soul place now (where once it was with fear & suspicion). xx Hi Pen – love what you’ve written here.
