Site was down, is now up. Went out on the path with the camera and the dogs. Rain is an opportunity for me. Had a long talk with an old friend last night who was talking too much about the end of life, about getting ready, about how her time on the stage has passed. I got alarmed for her. She only seems to see and hear bad news, angry politicians, massacres and suffering. All these things are real, for sure, but have always been part of the fabric of life. What an interesting thing, how to sort through the grimness of life and find the light and the hope and joy.

Still, I am worried about her and might go pay a visit.
