Where Do We Go from Here?

Dear Grateful Dead Heads: We just wanted to write you a little love note, that is, a note about love. We in the Community love you and we understand some of the thoughts and feelings you might be going through now with Jerry's death. There was a time when I was on tour and I would think about what it would be like when Jerry died. Oh, it would make me feel so sick! I felt like if he were to die then I would die too. At that time I was traveling and searching. The shows, the great feelings of life, and being with the family heads was satisfying, for a time. Eventually I realized that the kind of love I really desired deep down wasn't being fulfilled at the Grateful Dead shows anymore. I didn't want to go home any more after the show, or try to figure out where to go anymore. I wanted a life with friends that lasted always! A place where we never had to leave, we would always be together, taking care of each other -- that would be true love, not just a feeling of love...
