When it’s a day like this…and I am looking at this…
…I ask myself, seriously, why don’t I live here?… Oh, of course, there are lots of rational responses, they have to do with troublesome details like…commute time…our family’s vastly different schedules…my dependence on town luxuries, like electricity…(my intense fear of change)…
…but in my heart of hearts (the fearless one), I sit on the patio of this blessed stone house…
…watching the olive trees dance with the wind…and my children (they’ve turned back into wood dwelling elves and no one has seen them since)…
…and someone appears with this…and I look up and say…thank you…
