i have a guest. Firewood. this one. in particular, i loved the shape, the color. so i sat it on the little chair that i put across from the Morning Chair. so i could look upon it and maybe see it uhhhh, more? maybe truly appreciate. the firewood. i haven't lit the first fire yet. any day now though.
i wasn't a day better. was just kind of the same as yesterday, but i didn't jump forward from that. and it was a disappointment. but half way through the day, i kind of surrendered to it. found self looking longer at things than i ordinarily might. really considering them.
and then i got 3 emails this week from women who read here but for whatever reasons of their own don't comment here. i loved them. the emails and the women. they are Far Away. they weren't long or complicated, just Good. saying: this is who i am and i see who you are. hello. and i just
really really love that a lot. and it has changed the tone of the days for me. thinking of myself
here
and them, Far Away,
but sharing some Light that is familiar to all of us. it's very tender. and also is helping me look closely here, as along as it seems that Looking is pretty much all i can do for a few days anyway.
