Rob: Hi Alji, Love ya.Grasshopper
gin: Yeeeeeeeeaaaaahhh!
Lu: that picture put the biggest smile on my face. I love you!
gin: thinking of you with love
ed: ----
gin: I love you, al.
Matt: I admire your courage so much, Alyson. It seems like you still have a long path ahead of you. Is there any meaning to human suffering and death? Maybe there is and maybe there isn't. But I think you are giving meaning to life. You are giving more of yourself than I could ever dream of simply to help others through tragedy. I love you, come back soon.
Lu: sometimes I wonder if I'll ever understand what you say in some of these entries. I mean truly understand, I feel like some of the things you say will only make sense to me in time. I still haven't read The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, although I've started numerous times. you told me to read it when I was ready, and I know it will come some day. I love you and I miss you! I will see you soon (although not as soon as I would like!).
Cameron: Alyson, as always your words burn me. They remind me that I feel and also that I try to not feel. In doing so I hide from myself and I avoid life - reducing it to a game of chess. Thank you for your work, written, spiritual and physical."Action from principle, the perception and the performance of right, changes things and relations; it is essentially revolutionary and does not consist wholly with anything which was. It not only divides states and churches, it divides families; ay, it divides th
Marnie: I have tears in my eyes at work right now. I must remember to only check your blog when I can cry without embarrassment. I saw all those things as well and I'm ashamed that it's so easy to "forget" now that I've been home for a year. Thank you for reminding me...everyone needs to be reminded that life is not so simple on the other side of the world. My thoughts are with you as you travel...
gin: joel is walking with you......moving on to the next thing with you
Corey: Hi Alyson! I just wanted to let you know that I love you. I've left Petaluma and was talking with a bew friend about you the other day and got a little teary eyed. Thank you again for keeping this journal. Your level of comitment and self giving never ceases to amaze me.
fz: cool
gin: what a sweet moment to share....i got chills........love you
Marnie: Life expectancy: I can't imagine only having just 4 more years of my life left...the saddest thing is that this is an average which means many people aren't even making it 32 years. What's also terrible is that thanks to AIDS many people live thier last couple years being very sick. I miss you.
Maura: You are so amazing. You should write a book. I miss you and I love you. Thank you for sharing your stories.
Karin: Hey Miss Alyson,just letting you know I've been thinkin about you lately and hope that you're doing well. I can't wait to meet up when you get a minute here or there...xo.

Dana: Thinking about you. Can't wait to see you when you return.

Solvig: Hi Alyson, David showed me your lovely webpage. Thank you for keeping us all informed of your thoughts and daily life. It is so interesting and moving.
Mike Sheppard: Alyson,I just came across your journal about your adventures in Swaziland. I added a link to your page to a database I collected of Peace Corps Journals and blogs:http://www.PeaceCorpsJournals.com/Features:1. Contains over 1,400 journals and blogs from Peace Corps Volunteers serving around the world.2. Each country has its own detailed page, which is easily accessible with a possible slow Internet connection within the field. 3. The map for every country becomes interactive, via Google, once cli

1:55 AM

free my soul

I was on the bus, headed to town to check email this morning.  The bus was crowded, having come in from Manzini, and I ended up having to stand near the rear of the bus.  Oddly enough, Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away” came on the bus radio, for some reason tucked inbetween horrible music that passes itself off as gospel here.  I start singing along, quietly, and noticed someone singing at a bare whisper with me.  A man in a seat near the window, holding his young daughter on his lap, joins me a verse into the song:

 “Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time

I don't understand the things I do

The world outside looks so unkind

I'm countin' on you to carry me through

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away”

 

And the man’s eyes are closed and there’s a half smile on his face…

 

“And when my mind is free

You know a melody can move me

And when I'm feelin' blue

The guitar's comin' through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you've given me

I want you to know I believe in your song

Rhythm and rhyme and harmony

You help me along makin' me strong

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away”

 

We get to the end of the song and we know we shared a moment out of place, out of time, across cultures.  I guess we're all looking for a little release sometimes.
