Come on! Tell me who are you?
I’ll start (let’s leave out titles that have to do with our relationships  to others).
I am a lifelong learner of self. Lover of nature and creation. Nurturer of others (and myself on a good day 😉) I am a constant seeker of knowledge, and love to share those resources with my friends. I am gaining and practicing skills in areas where I need improvement (I will resist the temptation to list those areas 😆) and I love new connections, communities and friends.
You next 😃
Oh, and here’s a little musical Interlude for inspiration and retro effect

I actually saw the sunshine today for about one and a half minutes! Hey, I’ll take what I can get. Hang in there a little longer folks. In the meantime, here’s a song about it.

Right now there are Tibetan Buddhist monks in a temple in the Himalayas endlessly reciting mantras for the cessation of your suffering and for the flourishing of your happiness.
Someone you haven't met yet is already dreaming of adoring you.
Someone is writing a book that you will read in the next two years that will change how you look at life.
Nuns in the Alps are in endless vigil, praying for the Holy Spirit to alight the hearts of all of God's children.
A farmer is looking at his organic crops and whispering, "nourish them."
Someone wants to kiss you, to hold you, to make tea for you.
Someone is willing to lend you money, wants to know what your favorite food is, and treat you to a movie.
Someone in your orbit has something immensely valuable to give you — for free.
Something is being invented this year that will change how your generation lives, communicates, heals and passes on.
The next great song is being rehearsed.
Thousands of people are in yoga classes right now intentionally sending light out from their heart chakras and wrapping it around the earth.
Millions of children are assuming that everything is amazing and will always be that way.
Someone is in profound pain, and a few months from now, they'll be thriving like never before. From where they are, they just can't see it.
Someone who is craving to be partnered, to be acknowledged, to arrive, will get precisely what they want — and even more. And because that gift will be so fantastical in its reach and sweetness, it will quite magically alter their memory of angsty longing and render it all "So worth the wait."
Someone has recently cracked open their joyous, genuine nature because they did the hard work of hauling years of oppression off of their psyche — this luminous juju is floating in the ether, and is accessible to you.
Someone just this second wished for world peace, in earnest.
Some civil servant is making sure that you get your mail, and your garbage is picked up, that the trains are running on time, and that you are generally safe.
Someone is dedicating their days to protecting your civil liberties and clean drinking water.
Someone is regaining their sanity.
Someone is coming back from the dead.
Someone is genuinely forgiving the seemingly unforgivable.
Someone is curing the incurable.
You. Me. Some. One. Now.

Copied from another.
From the New York Times article, Marina Abramovic Thinks the Pain of Love is Hell on Earth, by David Marchese. Excerpt from a fine interview that may be paywalled:
“I’ll ask simpler questions. Who loves you?”
“This is like a Zen question. You are very tricky. Who loves me? This is not important. It’s that I can love. It’s not about some absent love coming to me. Most important is how to generate unconditional love, because love, if it’s conditional, is temporary. It comes and goes, and then it’s all disaster or suffering. But if you have unconditional love, general love for the planet, human beings, the rocks, the trees, everything else, this is the love that nourishes. This is the love I’m interested in. Who loves me? This is up to them, not up to me.”
