I fell in love with Fleetwood Mac listening to Christine McVie (formerly Christine Perfect) singing "Spare me a Little of Your Love" at a concert on Halloween, 1974. Discussing the album that song is from-- Bare Trees-- and the title song on the roof of the Georgia Tech physics building, looking out over the campus on a winter day, I realized how much I loved bare trees. Or perhaps just admitted it to myself.
Either way, my love for the band and this song indelibly intensified in that moment.
Gazing out at the Party Tree (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150441664891674.357408.636186673&type=3) this morning, this song naturally came to mind. All of creation is beautiful. It is only our foolishness or pain that keeps us from seeing that beauty.
