And the image of newness, taken in the autumn we moved into the house, is evocative to me. I can smell the bricks in the warm sun -- like in Pearl's image....<br /><br />Thanks, Barb!

Margaret's comments on the picture are spot on - you both look so happy and connected. The mingling is an interesting way to look at feelings - not compartmentalized but present, there, real, connected.Kathryn Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16757414380685368592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565601.post-25292401056538294012012-04-21T13:22:54.044-04:002012-04-21T13:22:54.044-04:00I love this photo of you and Tom, the joy of the c...I love this photo of you and Tom, the joy of the closeness and the knowledge of each other in how you are sitting.Margaret Almonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922823341489003652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565601.post-85462138945447377602012-04-21T11:36:50.943-04:002012-04-21T11:36:50.943-04:00Thank you Allison, Fran and Cathy....there is peac...Thank you Allison, Fran and Cathy....there is peace, there is joy. Realities that can't be separated. I told my spiritual director earlier this week that I had two melody lines (ear worms?) twining through my head since Easter night: "O vos omnes qui transitis per viam, attendite et videte: si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus" and "Christ is risen, truly rise, alleluia!" and that they seemed inseparable.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12617476463347663364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565601.post-91434523688820826642012-04-21T07:30:07.049-04:002012-04-21T07:30:07.049-04:00As Fran said, there are no words.
