Once Long Ago and Far Away...

Things Peg Long taught me:

1. First and foremost cover your ass with a BIG towel.
And while your at it kid... check my towel and if my ass is hanging in the wind, cover it too.<p>

2. Always sit in a circle with everyone if you can.<p>

3. If people have had an argument, and everyone has had to bear it, re-introduce them to each other later as if they have never met. This is a gesture of great magic which may allow them to be friends again.<p>

4. Love each other, admire each other, hold each other up to the light and just generally spend a lot of your public energy saying really good things about people.<p>

5. Always give each other second support. Beleive each others dreams and assist each others improvisational forays onto the landscape of reality. Always say " YES! and..." instead of "no or but". Be fantastical, ridiculous or sublime instead of being negative. Being negative stops the energy, stops the show. Keep the show going.<p>

6. Beauty is a shifting paradigm. The most beautiful woman in the world may be a woman who simply allows others to see feel and know that she feels loved.
