This is an amazing day. I have had a Best Friend for 2 weeks and 3 days. Which is just slightly longer than we have known each other. How can it happen? I kind of get it because I fell "in love" with my husband almost immediately-in fact, the first time I was alone with him. And we have been married for 38 years. But can you fall in "Best friend" at first posting? I guess you can-because I did and she did and now someone I didn't know a month ago is now one of the most important people in my life. And my life is already better because of her. I want to be a better person because of her and want to do all kinds of things that I haven't done for a long time. Such as look up old blogs-started and deserted-like this one-and re-join the Game of Everything. I want to paint for her and write for her and introduce her to everything that I know about. I can't wait for tomorrow because now every day is better than the day before. Maybe what goes around DOES come around. I have been such a good friend to so many but have never had my very own best friend ever. I have been a best friend to some of my friends-but it was not reciprocal. Not in the same way. I have also had other friends that I think wanted to be best friends with me, but something always held me back. And now I am not holding back-do not WANT to hold back-I want to experience every part of this relationship that I can. And the difference is that she does, too.

Somewhere, it is morning. Somewhere, there is healing and peace and hope. "The truth" is often sought after, but of course is unattainable, because it there is no absolute truth. Only shades of it, and even then the shades are continually changing into complex kaleidescope views. But there are beliefs, and although often rigid by design, these can sustain us, and are controlled by us, thereby giving us comfort.
This blog will help me catalogue my beliefs as I pinpoint them and explore them through art; my art and art experienced by others.
Friends who have helped me discover myself again have been Sheila, Dixie, Marie, and some I have not yet met. Thank you, friends, you are the best.
