Brian’s Reflection: Saturday, May 26, 2007


Art is not necessary at all. All that is necessary to
make this world a better place to live in is to love –
to love as Christ loved, as Buddha loved.

My motto - sans limites.

- Isadora Duncan, dancer, born on this day, 1877


Well, Isadora certainly lived her creed! Sans limites! Scandal and atheism and accidently drowned children (from 2 different men neither of whom she was married to) and Montparnasse and dancing at 5am in the Luxembourg Garden in Paris and being bisexual and baring her breasts on stage in (horrors!) Boston and having her faced painted and carved on the walls of the Theatre des Champs-Elysees and public drunkenness ……….

What a character! Many would deign to disapprove.

Maybe she was “sans limites”. But (let’s give her the benefit of the doubt, which most of us given our behavior would also need today) she “saw” that love is all that is necessary to make this world a better place.

Would that more did, especially world leaders and politicians.
