Week Two. Peeling back the layers. Still. Painfully. Oh. So. Layers of flooring, walls, possessions, lives. And, Grief. I'm turning the wordsmithing and photo artistry over to some other blogger and photographer friends for my second #NashvilleFlood post:
"There is something really big emerging here and those of us with eyes to see and ears to hear have the capacities to see/hear [the emergence]. This is one of the gifts of the artists, writers, poets, singers, dancers." -- Licensed Clinical Social Worker Dawn Kirk, who blogs at http://dawnkirkimaginetheshift.blogspot.com.
"'What if they threw a disaster and nobody came?'
Part of it is the bomb scare and the oil, but
part of it oddly, seems to be the loss of newspapers.
One of my friends called last night from Ann Arbor,
Mich. The Ann Arbor paper is now a twice weekly
blog, so she only just found out.[...]Our beautiful city
amazes me with its resilience." -- Christine Mather, who blogs at AutismReads.
Dawn published these two short posts, for which I've been granted permission to share here:
As Waters Subside - My Prayer
The rivers and streams overflowed their banks, giving our hearts opportunity to overflow with love, giving our hands opportunity to work acts of kindness, giving our spirits opportunity to send prayers and meditations throughout Tennessee.
Now that the waters are subsiding may love and all its many tributaries, compassion, kindness and generosity, never subside from the shores of new connections, from the banks of the Universal heart.

We're in a State of Emerge and See !
At lunch, I glimpsed news coverage titled "Flood Emergency Update." The word 'Emergency' caught my eye because I immediately saw tucked within another word - "emerge." Then I heard myself saying, "Emerge N C" followed by "Emerge and see."
I love words. They hold simple yet powerful keys available for us to see the possibilities in times like these.
Imagine what is being held here in what's called a crisis in Middle Tennessee if we can hold and use this an opportunity to Emerge, to come out, to bring forth new ways of being, living and relating to one another and to Mother Earth.
Emerge and See with Me !

I'm planning to publish again about the flood on Monday, May 17. Until then, I will continue to add information that I deem pertinent in the comments section of my flood posts. I'm resurrecting a couple of good finds here: Nashville Scene's photo coverage and Boston.com's. Thank you Boston Globe (Boston.com) for your coverage and also hats off with great gratitude to Bob Sellers for "What the Media Missed in the "Nashville" Flood, published in The Huffington Post.
