Hi Jeni , I love that picture of you and your Grandmothers hands. That is special. My Grandmother was very special to me too. I'm so glad I got to be close with her. So many of these new generations have no idea where they came from. Your songs are kinda like the oldest way of telling the past to the future. For thousands of years that was the only way to preserve history. Maybe still is...

I don’t have many old photos left, what with world wars and bushfires, but I am deeply conscious of (particularly) the 45,000 years worth of Latvian foremothers without whom I would not be here, or doing this work. They would agree with us both that the best way forward is through love and kindness, through laying a longer table, stretching the soup and sharing our blankets and hearts.

Beautiful. “Love”, on point.
