When we have made ourselves fully available to our neighbor and to God, becoming emptied in the process, then at last we begin to live.
~ from HAPPINESS THAT LASTS by Martin Israel
The people sing individually, in groups and often in harmony. I realized some of the songs were as old as time. These people repeat chants created here in the desert before the invention of the calendar. But I also experienced new compositions, music being composed just because I was there. I was told, "Just as a musician seeks musical expression, so the music in the Universe seeks to be expressed." ... A musician carries the music within.
