    "Die, die, die in this love.
    If you die in this love your soul will be renewed.
    Die, die, don't fear the death of that which is known.
    If you die to the temporal you will become timeless.
    Die, die, cut off those chains
    that hold you prisoner to the world of attachment.
    Die, die, die to the deathless and you will be eternal.
    Die, die, come out of this cloud.
    When you leave the cloud,
    you will be the effulgent moon

    Hi Melissa!

    I wanted to let you know that you've been randomly selected from over 400 members of Play Book Tag to select the tag we will read for the month of August.

    Please let me know if you'd like to do this. It's up to you, but if you are unable to, then I need to select someone else.

    In order to choose the tag, you need to go to the list of top 200 tags at
    www.shelfari.com/books/tags. You can select any of the top 200 tags except the ones we've already done (historical fiction, fantasy, young adult, 19th century, Africa, and fairy tales).

    Then, please let me know via private message or note to the Play Book Tag administrator which tag you've chosen. We like to keep it a secret until the end of July.

    So, please let me know if you are up for this. If I don't hear from you within 48 hours, unfortunately I need to move on to someone else. Hope you'll play Book Tag with us!!

    best, Anita

    كبوتر روزي به جغدي گفت:
    بهتر است سكوت كني و آواز نخواني.
    آدمها آوازت را دوست ندارند. غمگين شان مي كني. دوستت ندارند. مي گويند بديمني و بدشگون و جز خبر بد، چيزي نداري.

    قلب جغد پير شكست و ديگر آواز نخواند.

    سكوت او آسمان را افسرده كرد. آن وقت خدا به جغد گفت: آوازخوان كنگره هاي خاكي من! پس چرا ديگر آواز نمي خواني؟ دل آسمانم گرفته است.

    جغد گفت: خدايا! آدمهايت مرا و آوازهايم را دوست ندارند.

    خدا گفت: آوازهاي تو بوي دل كندن مي دهد و آدمها عاشق دل بستن اند. دل بستن به هر چيز كوچك و هر چيز بزرگ. تو مرغ تماشا و انديشه اي! و آن كه مي بيند و مي انديشد، به هيچ چيز دل نمي بندد. دل نبستن سخت ترين و قشنگ ترين كار دنياست. اما تو بخوان و هميشه بخوان كه آواز تو حقيقت است و طعم حقيقت تلخ.

    جغد به خاطر خدا باز هم بر كنگره هاي دنيا مي خواند و آنكس كه مي فهمد، مي داند آواز او پيغام خداست.

    Hello dear member of the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group! It's J., the admin., and I'm writing to inform you of the group's new look! (And it goes beyond the change in our group picture, though it is nice, don't you agree?) :) What we're discussing now: Patricia Hill Collins' Black Feminist Thought, Toni Morrison's Sula for our July read, our little BIG Read: 7 short stories in 7 days to begin later this month, the National Black Arts Festival where Alice Walker and Pearl Cleage are featured speakers, and more!

    We'll soon have a group blog up and running, will begin profiling the uberly dynamic authors within our own group, discussing women's/girls action coalitions in your city, reviving some of our good ol' threads, etc.

    I challenge everyone to invite at least one friend (already a member of shelfari or otherwise) to join the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group and to log in at least bi-weekly. (Though weekly would be wonderful!) And I pledge to do the same.

    And did you know that Toni Morrison's new novel, A Mercy, is due to be released in November? Ah, you would if you'd visited our group page! (No, actually, I haven't posted this information. lol) But do stop by and fall into the purple haze that is extraordinary literature by feminists of color!

    Love, Jaya

    hi, there's great book swapping happening at www.bookmooch.com. it has a forum here at shelfari, at http://www.shelfari.com/groups/23735/about.

    bookmooch is a site that lets you give away the books you don't want anymore and get the books you Really Want to&from bookmooch members all over the world!

    joining is free. you don't spend to get the books but you will have to pay postage to send internationally. with sea mail, you won't be damaged so much though (80/thin book, 150 up for heavier books).

    hope you join!
