Had a visit from a friend over the weekend. It was nice to walk the streets with him. Just chatting and stopping off for a drink. We ate and talked. I made him a cup of coffee in my small rooms and just the act of preparing a simple snack for someone...I felt a goodness and delight in it.
Many of us are disconnected geographically from family, and it is the other people that we come to know that sort of become like a family. We cross tracks with people, sometimes temporarily...But we have to keep ourselves open to meeting others and learning from each person.

Poem for Today
Learn
All this teaching,
I sat there listening for years,
And I have learned nothing...
I can't help my grief,
Or help my lover.
I share her pain,
But she is alone,
And she puts me outside her world.
