The Carver

I have had for a long time...and I'm sure others have had too...the notion
that in each human being...there is a beautiful being...waiting to be liberated
...from blindness or backwardness...or from us human beings...sometimes...simply
having no wish...to consciously work on our personal growth. This idea...some years ago...found expression in the metaphor of the carver...chipping away at the log
before him or her...to liberate the beautiful sculpture...hidden away in the log.
Ihis metaphor...resulted in the writing of this song..."The Carver". This morning...
I'm also reminded...that under the tinsel...and "shopping to show that you care"...
that seems to be abroad in the land at this time...there is a beautiful "spirit of
the season"...that my wish is...emerges more
powerfully than ever...this time round...................Quester.
