sometimes i crave those spaces and places. sitting in sistercircles and connecting on the deepest of levels. since moving home i've come to remember that all sisters and sister spaces don't have enough room for the intense, in depth, deep to the root of it all coversations talks that i cherish and love dear. i've also come to remember that sometimes people just want to shop and spend money or dance to the funky beat without thinking about/dissecting/processing the social-political-national-international ramifications and impact that their behavior has created/confirmed/supported. i've also learned that hoursandhours of time can be spent in deep dish (like a casserole) conversations with folks i don't (really) know and that those conversations can be the grounding rock/inspiring impetus to get my ass moving in a way that some other chats just might not and usually don't.

so i've come to learn and love the rainbow of fruit flavors of relationship that is ever unfolding and evolving in my life. i've come to learn more and more about the diversity of people that i know and love (and like) and how family cannot ever be confined to blood. and while i've known this all for a mightymighty long time, it's looking increasing fresh as i grow more and more into adulthood.

yes. there is still something special and beautiful in that land of the a., the place where i grownt myself into a womyn with the help/nurturing/support and love of some of the most brilliant Brilliants i've ever known. Yesyes. it's all true. and i'm growing more into a blessed assurance that gone does not mean forgotten and growth does not mean abandonment. i am learning to love the here and now and the space between.

for all of this i am most grateful.

always love,
