March BJP

"You go there"

Remembering my trip to India.

I edited this post after a few days, however I am putting back the links to the Theyyam ceremony to which the page is partly a reference :

did you paint the face yourself? and if you did, can you tell a bit about it?

This is an awesome BJP piece! Your artistry in creating it should give you a great deal of pride.

Many years ago, we watched The Jewel in the Crown on public television and were entranced by the spiritual quality of India, too.

Wow, thank you so much KV !

i'm really impressed that you can "buy a plane ticket to india on an impulse" and let a driver with a list you did not write make you visit the country.

You really are a free woman.
And so rich.
I definitely did not know you, and am glad to discover more.

this piece really showcases how much you have grown into yourself during this year's worth of journaling. I like everything about it.
