erika | true simplicity.

Of all the things I am sad about——today my mind keeps returning to the fact that there are only 4 Shakers left.

I can't explain it or justify it, but I can say that I used to check out this 1995 recording of Shaker songs & chants done with the collaboration of the Shakers at Sabbathday Lake about once a freaking month from the library when I was younger.

For those of you who youtube, I highly recommend this interpretation.
