REGALOS

"Yes," I told him, this is the 3rd time I have been here" he told us "No, YOURE BACK!" he then gave us gifts along with his observations, feelings and thoughts about our meeting he also gave us huge hugs and left us with tears in his eyes Why? I cannot say and/or explain each of these folks were complete strangers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AVENUE OF THE DEAD AVENIDA DE LOS MUERTOS Ran into another gentleman who was with his FAMILIA that day taking pictures of them on the avenue looked familiar turns out he is a FACEBOOK friend from a couple of years ago who attended a concert I did in Mexico City each of these encounters were totally unexpected and EXPERIENCED by MI FAMILIA and definitely APPRECIATED happens a lot usually when I am alone usually by MUSICOS who give me gifts of instruments folks I have never met they just walk up and hand them to me Books Conch shells Condor feathers Flowers Jewelry Mallets Musical bows Obsidian Sticks Turtle shells Water drums sometimes without more than “This is for you” when you tell folks they find it hard to believe i.e., this was the first time MI FAMILIA experienced it with me Can’t explain or articulate why this happens with these strangers (?)
