Comment:

With the coming of spring, I was moved to take stock of the changes to my body - from head to toe, as it was. As the Buddha said, "To keep the body in good health is a duty . otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear."

Thus, I had the jumping off point for this mix, noticing the lines drawn by time which "might be graffiti on your body," according to Ani DiFranco. I think it is this concern about aging that makes it difficult to let go of things in our own lives, whether it be a critical circumstance, a relationship or whatever. "It keeps us looking backward in all things," said Gary Maurer of Hem, "like having a Lazy Eye."

When coping with the realities of the aging process, sometimes it is helpful to return to childhood memories when thoughts of this nature were non-existent. I tried to remember the ticklish spots my dad found while compiling these tunes.

Quiz: To win a copy of this mix, name the band that found its name when one of its members was dumped by a seamstress.
