Dreamy

I might have to acknowledge it...summer's coming to a close.

What a change from the beginning of the season, when my whole life hanged in the balance. I feel solid and secure, and so happy. It has been such a time of connection when I felt so lost and disconnected at the beginning of July. How quickly things have come together. I have met new people and appreciate them for whatever they are in my life and ask no more of them. One has arrived and departed almost as quickly as he came, but was absolutely precious and beautiful in the moment and I adore him nonetheless. He gave me exactly what I needed at the precise moment I needed it, and taught me so much about myself through being with him. Others have been there for me in ways for which there will never be enough gratitude, for guiding me through the darkest rooms of my grief. Some have been there for me every day, and others were willing to step back into my world after so much time away. One friend forgave me an old mistake and I have missed her. There are new connections, to my lovely Peach, for one, and a perhaps a new and different connection to someone I knew years ago whom I always thought extraordinary. More than anything, I have so much love for all of you. If I consider you a true friend, I hold you so close to my heart you might feel it beat. If we laugh together, if we share ourselves in any way; I love you. You are beautiful and amazing. ♥e
