we stamp our feet.

we stamp our letters.

and

we stamp our art.

the first is in anger or frustration,

the second is a fee for services expected,

and the third is a seal of character,

or appreciation,

or locations of creation.

or ownerships,

authentications,

or

philosophy

or

faith.

but no stamp should ever be mistaken for what’s really important –

be it the fear behind the anger or frustration

or

the contents of the envelope

or

the practice of mediation.
