At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.
- Albert Schweitzer
Sometime our own words just don’t cut it.
To my friends and family who wrote, called, and commented, I am forever grateful. I could not have imagined loving you all more when I pulled away from home last month. It is, without question, the sweetest reward.
All is well. Today I worked on some contingency plans, did my laundry (in a machine… so cool) and went for a hike. Life is good.
I revisited several interviews that I had not had time to review and discovered a gem. While I was passing through Santa Rosa, New Mexico, I met a kindred spirit in Vicki Sexton. Vicki and I are close in age and share a love of scooters. She told me about the basket that her husband custom made so that her dog could ride along with her. A real character, Vicki has an infectious smile that lights up the room.
