Heartbeat of Oaxaca

October 25, 2018 by spixl

This morning, on the way to my Oaxaca Lending Library cataloging shift (once a librarian, always a librarian), I made a detour through Jalatlaco, where the murals always give one pause.

I was on my way to Clinica Hospital Florencia to check on my 92 year old neighbor who had a pacemaker installed yesterday afternoon (once a nurse, always a nurse).

Like Oaxaca, she is strong…

She is proud…

And, she is back home after only 24 hours and feeling GREAT!!!

Beautiful interpretation! Wish I could take you on all my walks around Oaxaca to help me understand all the puzzling murals
