this evening


It was a comfort and relief to take a walk to see Lady Liberty today.  It's a most consoling walk. 

I saw an unexpected small green plant in the middle of mess and cement....


Such a small lonely plant in the middle of a sidewalk. 

I got volume 3 of Emma M Lion today.

I made progress on some of my theological reading.  Some slogging but then surprising beauty. I took notes....

Tomorrow is 3 years and 40 days since my friend Peter died, 3 years of healing from my memory loss.  

I feel like I have processed my unusual loss, unusual because I can take in a place and a person who, for personal reasons, means a great deal to me but really very little to the other in comparison to how the person had helped me.  It's very strange to see, but I am glad I understand that aspect of myself better.  I am still sad but it is just part of life... And everyone has sadness and loss, it is a very real part of life.

I am greatful for my life.

May God have mercy on us.
