The Space Between

We walk beside, not in each other’s shadow,

our steps in rhythm, yet our paths our own.

Your voice is gentle rain on thirsty meadow,

mine answers back like wind through fields well-sown.

We do not clutch, for trust needs open fingers,

nor press our will where silence ought to stay.

The kindness given lingers, always lingers,

like light that warms but never burns away.

In laughter’s rise, in sorrow’s quiet keeping,

we honor all the truths we’ve come to know—

that friendship blooms not from the constant reaping,

but from the care that lets each spirit grow.

So here we stand, with hearts both free and near,

a bond of respect that time cannot wear thin.

Good Night and God Bless...

Good afternoon everyone...feeling kind of at a loss today..the world is a mess...Today was one of my friends funeral and I just could not make myself go...I know she would understand..Her and I talked about a week ago and I knew she was in a hospice place...She has been sick for some time now so now she is out of pain...I know many of you are going through things and many seem to be missing on here but there are reasons..I will try to be on here more and try to share joy..we all need that for sure...Hugs and love to you all...

Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity. 

The biggest problem with communication 

is that we don't listen to understand. 

We listen to respond. When we listen with curiosity, 

we do not listen with the intent to respond. 

We listen to what is behind the words.
