Yay for a (re)introduction! I've loved your words these past few months and am eager to meet your new to substack, but not new to you followers! Welcome to this community!
It is odd to say this, but I look forward to being sorrowful this coming Passion Week. I am an excellent avoider, and very skilled at turning my mind to more pleasant things. But in doing this, I miss seeing the truth about myself and about my world. Bach's music and Almut's contemplations offer me a gentle way to be open to my sorrow and the sorrow I cause. A gift at any price.
