Hi Rachel,
Long time no see, no here, let me know that you are well. Sorry that I haven't written that much either, Remember? we met on that nice day on the streets of Cambridge. You had such a beautifully active mind energy. Told me about Marilyn Manson and our estrangement with death. So true. What do you think about these days??? Please write back.
Merry Christmas if you celebrate and happy Solstice as well.....

Yes, I remember you. You rocked my world too. Sorry it took so long to reply, I don't really use this email anymore unless I'm at home. After the end of January you should probably be trying to reach me at xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.edu. I'm doing okay, I've gotten really into Zen and shamanism at the same time over the past couple months and I'm busy being a young girl in love. One of good my friends just killed herself, you wrote to me the day of her funeral which was a strange thing but fitting. I'm kind of okay, not really. But overall things have been all right I guess. I'm getting a double minor in anthropology and psychology, and I'm toying with the idea of becoming a therapist with a specialty in acculturation issues, and then setting up a practice someplace with a high immigrant population like Vancouver. I've got this great new writing project I'm really excited about. Oh yeah, and there's a tree in cambridge I think you should meet, incredibly loving and grandfatherly and I think he's a bodhisattva, he's about 8 blocks from the Copley stop, down by the river right next to the bridge to MIT. People occasionally leave tree offerings at the base--candles, unopened flasks of Bacardi, oranges. I kind of feel these changes starting, not just with me but on a really large scale and I've been ferreting out people who've been feeling the same thing. There are a couple dozen potentials, and at least 9 have had this really weird similar experience, this strong conviction that changes were coming, and a personal sort of taking off, amazing ideas flooding in, and the same response to it, trying to find people, compulsively trying to hunt down folks they haven't seen since girl scout camp. It started the same time, mid June. It's like we're all being drawn together in this inexplicable way. Have you heard anyone talking about anything like this? I can probably explain better some other time when I'm not tired. I should go to bed, but let me know how you're doing.
Teeth to the wind,
Rachel

I am very sorry about your friend. I normally would not of mentioned Marilyn Manson at a point like that, had I known, but if it was fitting I am glad. There are really no words when we lose someone that has touched us. We take a piece of them with us and move on.
A double minor? What's your major? Or did you tell me once & I forgot?
You want to be a therapist eh? you’d probably be good at that - you certainly have the mind for it. "acculturation issues" "high immigrant population like Vancouver" Wow!! So specific!?? I am wondering why you have your life so planned out? Got to realize that things may come up between now & then.
That tree, I’ll have to check it out next time on that side of the riv/ umm WHERE is that tree ??? Coply is in Boston but you type Cambridge - is it on Mass Ave?? Near MIT??? or in Boston near the bridge to MIT? Somewhere in my memory it sounds familiar.... Think I've seen it somewhere.... Maybe in a dream...
I've been feeling the energy of new stuff coming our way for the last 20 years! It feels like - wow! intense - this is it - yeah I know what you mean and it is beautiful. There might have been a new wave around mid June - forget - Went to the rainbow in Calif in early July. You might be feeling the effects of Saturn doing something - I forget what - but something that makes us focus on 'home' more - old connections etc etc. I've been dealing with my mother more -
It may be that all this is for us to gather ourselves together, know who we are and prepare for the next step. Gee, I'm sorry about you friend....
I've been trying to concentrate on this thing I've been doing that was sort of my answer, my response or solution to what I have seen in the world and ways to heal it. Lately, I've been concentrating more on it. Though I always like to dance about the folk. Especially when I feel these energies, Sometimes I feel the urge to run out and see an old friend that just happened to be back in town for that one moment! Stuff like that - yeah,
Someone special was just here for a few weeks. I put everything else on hold when she is here. Now I am busy catching up, All these boring details I got to attend to.
Soooo.... again, I am sorry about your friend. I feel that you want to say more about her. Please do. Or if you want to talk let me know & I'll get you my number. People are generally very upset by the time they finally get me on the phone. I have no voice mail & I'm never here! But I could arrange to be here if you would like to talk.....
I feel sad without even knowing the person. Did she leave a note? What was it like the last time you saw her? Does she have incomplete projects? Little brothers or sisters? Friends? Lovers? Parents?, of course she has parents! They must feel pretty bad.
What is that thing you always wanted to tell her? What do you want to tell her now? How do you feel about what she did? You must miss her. Little things remind you of her...
Hmmm... Long, long time ago, Less stopped writing back. After a year or so I dug up an aunt of his somewhere and she told me that he was found dead in his car with a gun. I didn't believe that it was suicide. I thought that someone must of killed him and made it look like suicide. I walked around the city of New Haven (or was it Hartford) and I looked at the people and felt sad for them that they would never get to know him. I felt a strong sadness - but not for Less but for a world without Less. The Lessles world.
And you? Please feel free to tell me more about how you feel. I want you to know that I am here for you in any way I can at this hard time.
