I realized today that clearly every day may not work for blogging. I should have learned this from my friend Bernice who has an amazing blog project called 12days2inspire
where she diligently wrote every day for a year taking on a new project every 12 days. It was amazing and still is. I can only commit to writing as often as possible.
Last night we had Christmas dinner for 14 old and new friends. First Shawn is incredible he cooked an incredible meal with grace. A huge turkey and a ham, in a space challenged kitchen. Sometimes his superhuman feats astound me.
Seeing so many diverse friends together made me think about what makes you hang onto certain people in your life and why do some fall to the wayside?
What does the managerie of people around you at any particular time say about who you are or where you have come from.
I have not figured out an answer to this one yet but I am working on it.
There is a truth in all of our friendships and an ease. There is no need for pretense, or apology about anything we are who we are.
Shawn and I are fairly private people, we do not thrive in huge social situations full of obligation. We are better one on one connecting with our hearts.
I have huge gratitude for all the roles that our friends have played in our lives, documenting certain times, being touchstones for how far we all have come and being supportive of the future.
Thank you lovely friends for sharing a great night.
