Sometimes, in the midst of a crazy day or a crazier week,
I get an email from my brother, ‘meet you below the falls in five minutes’.
And just like that, I am somewhere else, breathing in the cold spray from high
above, as laughter echoes off canyon walls.
Even now, I close my eyes and hear the wonderful music
that is bare feet on flat rocks.

A very benedictory talent, I dare say.
……..a very sweet vacation without the need to fly………
🙂
You sparked my memory of a place like this in my youth. I didn’t know how much I missed it till now…bob
O, Bob………surely, you missed it without knowing what it was. There’s a trail I walk on from time to time, and it runs not far from a river. In the summer, it is a special treat – as the sounds of laughter, water, and bare feet echo across the space between. I could stay in that place for hours, held tenderly within the arms of pure joy. I think maybe you should find that place again, and love it anew. ❤
A very precious and delightful moment! You probably needed to smile that day…and the blessing came your way! Bless you my dear sister!
I tend to smile every day……….but when I get those notes, it makes me slow down……..it gives me another reason to be grateful…..for the places shared in love, and a brother that keeps memories as dear as mine. ~ Thank you, Wendell. ❤
Special moments and memories are such precious things…

Indeed………they are what separates us from every other creature…..the ability to pick and choose what we keep. Thank you, you!
