Remembering Greg Pilgrim (Tamler)

"Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go"

Listening to this John Prine song today reminded me of my old friend who died in 2005. That "one thing that I can hold on to" for both of us was Taijiquan. It gave us both a set of embodied principles that helped us make sense of this "hard way to go." I miss you buddy but you still live in my heart.

If you'd like to get to know my fine friend even just a bit I recommend his book of poetry: One Stone Unturned. His partner Karen Good organized it and had it published in 2010.
