There are times in life where we
know words are not enough…even when the sounds and cadences of letters strewn
together like beads on a string alleviate our consciousness to another level of
understanding and appreciation.
There are times in life when the
simplicity of a “thank you” or an “I love you” or the heartfelt rhythm of an
“I’m sorry” resonates a deeper meaning than countless platitudes that sound
drenched in artificiality and hubris.
There are times in life when we
need to say more and understand the heart is so filled with gratitude and
appreciation that the less we say the more we say it.

To the readers, Michele Jones
Galvin, Joyce Stokes Jones, Edward Mendes, Heidi Nightengale, Sheila Applegate,
Howard Nelson, Christine Noble, and Bobbie Panek, each of you voiced words as
precious gemstones to be admired and worn every day because we are rich in
spirit and understanding, and we deserve preciousness to engulf us all the
time.
Signature Music: Danielle Evans(vocals,) Nubia Hill (vocals,) Malik Clanton (saxophone,) Dick Ford(keyboard)
To the musicians, Malik Clanton,
Danielle Evans, Nubia Hill, and Dick Ford, you laid down the keys and notes
that provided the framework for the words to form exquisite patterns like the
quilts the elders still make, just for the joy and security that their woven
patterns bring to others.
To the over 100 guests and fans,
your presence and support, stenciled your love of the word and sound deeply
into the consciousness of everyone in Theater Mack.Your gaiety, seriousness, reflection, and
applause resonated and cemented everyone as part of a literary community.
To aaduna, Inc. staff and Board
members, Theater Mack personnel, [clmp] and NYSCA, thank you.
There are times in life, when the need to say
more is achieved by saying less.
