Values

I watched you arrive, one by one.
I waited for just one more and this morning, Analia found her way in.
I was only thinking of Ruth and Mick on the 7th, and honestly not expecting to see anyone, because the point was that I felt I just had to make this, as a rite.
But, you all came and I you were the ones, just you.
OK, I let a "stranger" in and have been helping Wendy's son in Oregon to make his school project ever since. That was pure serendipity.
To have you together - Ruth, Paul, Auds, Jenny, Mimi, Lucie and Analia - has been even more serendipitous, and has given an extraordinary feeling. the bonds still hold.
As Analia was last in, only she could remark on it. But Ani, what you didn't know was I was waiting for you!

A great community of 20,000+ and I amuse myself there every day. That's all.
Bless every one of you, my dear friends. Like I always say: Presume nothing.

 

 

 

 

For Ruth, for Mick

My very dear Ruth,
I haven't forgotten.
Even as this struggle goes on (in the wrong direction), I remember 7 April 2007 and all I can think is how terribly painful tomorrow is going to be for you.
But you have to see it through, like all the other 365 days past.
And I have every certainty that you will, whatever the pain.
I took these photos (miraculously, I assure you) just this morning. So these are fresh flowers.
And I thought of you and wondered. About you; about all of us.
There aren't words. There aren't answers to the questions.
Courage & strength, dear,sweet Ruth.
Love, as always,
