Today was special because R came visiting! She was my teacher in school. She was visiting her family and she dropped in this morning. Oh, how it brought back all those lovely, carefree schooldays! How we had feared her no nonsense ways then! Today I felt she was like a child with all that innocence. I have felt this way many times with the 'grown ups' of my childhood. My own growing up and realizing that they are so human and so vulnerable. As a child I felt so protected by their strength and 'grownupness'. Now I have this urge to wrap my arms around them and take care of all of them. I feel that the most for mom and dad.

Today we got the computer shifted to our little space. So it feels heavenly to sit and let these words flow looking out at the forest of plants outside. The sky is full of purple clouds and the air is beautifully fragrant. The breeze is getting wilder and a fine spray just swept into the room :)

Today, this moment is such a blessing :)
