Well, y'know...) - from Catherine. I think fan sounds right. I read that Joni named her cat Nietzsche. This would be in contrast to disciple. In the Malka Marom book, Joni said that there is no heart with Nietzsche. It was a big smile for me in finding out that she had moved around a lot with Carl Jung, also. In the song where god is on death row, she said: Still I send out my prayer. This fact is not denied, and I think this is what makes her work so powerful. She would blow the damn candle out. She would go ahead and look around in the dark. Still, she included at least reflections of that which would not be denied. Like when she could not help poor Betsy out. The light was just so hard to find. Still, there was a window, it would not be denied. There was some moonlight in the window, even if it was just reflected light coming across the darkness like an empty spotlight, sometimes. This is why her composition around Love/Corinthians blew me away. This light is real, too. She followed up with Love Has Many Faces. In Corinthians, though, ancient/modern/future all on gorgeous wings, she sings it. The light that some of us find only in the utter darkness. Man, does she sing it.

I remember a Time magazine cover, for some weird reason, that turns out to have been printed in 1966. The album came out in 1973. Joni wonders whether God is dead. He is, at the very least, on death row, so his time may be up. But Joni is also a fan of Nietzsche, who said that God was dead. (Can one be a *fan* of Nietzsche? Well, y'know...) This page conveniently has both the Time mag cover and the Nietzsche blurb: http://www.age-of-the-sage.org/philosophy/friedrich_nietzsche_quotes.html To post messages to the list,sendto joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:joni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe - ------- ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2015 #342 ***************************** ------- To post messages to the list,sendto joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:joni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe -------
