Buenos Aires, Argentina
Deal With the Fluff
In the Spanish world they have a
saying: Si te gusta el durazno bancate la pelusa. “If you like peaches, you must deal with
the fluff.”
A conversation I had with two young people,
who shared this with me, addressed the austerity that one is obliged to do this
if you really want to enjoy life. They
also pointed out a song from the 80’s “Every rose has its thorn” by the
unplugged group “Poison.”
Duality is what we must live with in this
world, whether we like it or not. Sweet
and sour play together in the real world.
Enough of this subject is contained in the Bhagavad-gita.
Since I arrived here in Buenos Aires, it’s
been time spent in hard work, which is motivated by wanting a good result (as
best as possible). Our production of
“Krishna Is…” comes with co-operation, timeliness and listening.
Unfortunately, my Spanish stinks. I’m picking up on some words. I’ll say, “Hermoso” which means “beautiful” when I think the actors really put
forth their best at a practice. I’m
committed to encouragement to augment the performance. The good Lord knows I raise my voice at times
in order that our troupe keeps focused on the project. Directors are permitted to do such
things. A touch of discipline can’t
spoil the purchase. It enhances.
My experience thus far in dealing with the
young to mid-age in the drama has been good, except for the mañana spirit that
sometimes kicks in. Delay, or being late
in showing up is a kind of procrastination.
Being “on time” is a welcome austerity.
May the Source be with you!
