Spirit

Feeling grateful tonight for the rich communities I've been welcomed into over the past few months. 

Many barren years have come and gone without revealing this honest, deep connectedness with other people outside my family.  Now I look around and find that I am suddenly holding hands with many people of like mind, many people walking the same paths I am.  Moving in unison toward the same distant drumbeat, working with the same vision in their hearts. 

I give thanks for the turning of this wheel, for this new era of my life.  I give thanks for each person sharing their truth, their tenderness, their fire, their willingness to be known.
