Before Cuba
I took some time in
packing and readying myself for the annual trip to Cuba. There’s really not much to pack, to be
honest. Between myself and travelling
companion, Hayagriva, we have our clothes, toiletries, bhakti books in Spanish, Indian spices to leave with Krishna devotees,
and our own reading and writing material.
Hayagriva, of course, has his computer. https://instagram.com/p/BcE5Me2lfYo/
While it’s a day for
placing installments into my carry-on suitcase, I also took the time for
people. There’s an actor friend who came
to see me. He’s been struggling with an
addiction but is making headway into pulling away from his attachments. Good for him.
He’s taking more refuge of Krishna.
There is also a woman,
blonde, who has that striking resemblance to Joni Mitchell. I had a few words with her, as well as Fred,
who comes by almost every day to our Govinda’s for a great meal. Fred works in retail and shows up quite
exhausted after dealing with the Christmas madness. Fred is from Timmins and has his connections
with celebrity Shania Twain.
“She had a rough
upbringing and lived for a while eating mustard sandwiches,” he said.
Anyway, I don’t really
known Shania, only that she’s famous and was after my time. I became a monk in ’73 so I missed a lot of
the entertainment material. Perhaps, I
didn’t miss much.
What do you think,
readers? After Joni Mitchell was there
much to listen to from the musical, secular point of view?
May the Source be with
you!
