Songkran

Thai New Year, Easter, New Beginnings...

Sawasdee krap. Greetings friends. Just wanted to send a small note of thanks at this time of new life, where all over the world families gather together to usher in the return of Spring. Whether you celebrate Easter, the Equinox, Songkran, or any other wonderful version of sacred cyclical renewal, may you be blessed throughout the coming year.

On a personal note, a deep bow to the overwhelming number of you who have reached out asking me to make it possible for you to support my writing, financially. Your contribution helps greatly and the simple fact that you asked me to do this, makes my heart jump up. Many lotus flowers at your doorstep.

I will continue offering all my newsletters for free. In response to your generous, heartfelt request I have turned on the option to offer a financial contribution for those who feel inspired to do so. Please note that everything will remain free however, for everyone. You may be prompted to resubscribe, which is why the emails opening page may look a wee different this week, but this only takes about 5 seconds.

In the ongoing effort to dismantle the mind-numbing idiocy of social media and regenerate the beauty of vulnerability, the elegant power and beauty of word and the importance of true dialogue away from the realm of capital incentives, all newsletters will remain free of charge to all.

Please note* If you did not open yesterdays newsletter for fear you will have to pay, I encourage you to take a few seconds and wander on back through the main gate and simply let the kind ushers at the door know you wish to subscribe (in whichever way you wish to do so.).

Last but not least, my family and I will be joining the monks and nuns of Plum Village for the Songkran (the Thai New Year/Water Festival) and as such I will be taking a much needed retreat from all technology. So, no post next Saturday.

See you in two weeks.

All blessings,

Gregory S. Pettys
