Comment on 1972 Letter to Editor by Alvin W. Need by Susan Canavarro

Yeah. cyberspace – our universal mind! That’s a little scary, isn’t it. I know that’s not what you meant, jacquie, just thinking out loud here.
I think whatever Dad was thinking or wrote back then were thoughts and words already out there in universal consciousness and he just tuned into it, like turning the dial on a radio. That’s perhaps why, as some people have written or theorized, so many same or similar innovative ideas pop up in many different places around the world even tho there has been no communication between the artists or scientists or doctors, etc. It’s like magic.

Susan – there is a lot that could be said about this latest blog: your words about you and your dad; the discoveries this box keeps giving you; the higher social consciousness “back then” but I like Jack’s “Al’s universal consciousness” and imagine it
now floating around in cyberspace for so many more to read.
Thank you for sharing. jrw

Hi Jack, thank you. There is one other letter of his on my blog dated 1975, under the Fragments Category; and of course in my book there are several. I’m glad you enjoyed them.

Thanks for bringing this to light, Susan. Your Dad’s writing has intrigued me since you first sent his notes about art a while ago. I think they disappeared when I changed computers, although they are somewhere in cyberspace I’m sure. Along with Al’s universal consciousness. Wishing you the best.

Susan, I am filled w/joy that you received such a wonderful gift; I am filled w/smiles from reading of your memories of the explorations of a young woman (I’d hate to say how many I can relate to, too!); and filled w/heartfelt emotion of your loses…all because of another one of your beautiful writings. This small gift is like a precious stone or gold, but worth far more because they filled your heart. I too look forward to he next one…and the next one. Thank YOU.

Susan, this is great. I can certainly feel your youthful losses,and then your physical loss of your family album, your sister’s writings, the belongings~ I feel your tragedy, because it would have been a tragedy for me, if I’d lost all of that. What a comfort, and joy, to have some of that back! Memories are so important. I look forward to your next piece. Very touching.
