loving...

Moo Moo @ Squam & lovin' it

do you know when you have it good? I mean really know it? really see it? I was lucky that I got a chance to glimpse, see, feel just how good I do have it.

I am married to an amazing soul...we have been together in other lives...past souls intertwined...we have always said what the other is thinking...we have both been the receiver & the sender in these thoughts (my feminist heart loves that) & we say so very often, "I was just gonna say that" or "I was just thinking that"...

This loving being & I went away for an artist's retreat...to do our own thing & to come together & share our experiences...like we usually do...this though was a microcosm I could see, clearly see through my eyes, heart, & soul & an indelible mark was made...I saw a partner willing to be the absolute minority (1 of 2 men in 135 participants), who made my twin bed for me everyday along with his, who sang my love song in front of all who gathered that he wrote for our 16th anniversary this summer & moved them all to tears w/its beauty... who said that only 2 things could have made this incredible experience better...an electric space heater & a king size bed...we didn't always eat together...I was so wrapped up in my experience from my class that I ate w/my new mates & he willingly sat alone so I could commune...we didn't spend every night socializing together...he went to the coffeehouse to perform & I stayed w/new knitting buddies around a cozy fire...he returned from performing to join the friends by the hearth as I was leaving to go to bed & we both continued on our coarse, lovingly wishing the other a good night...I reconnected w/him in a soul space we have not shared in a while, asking for gentleness from him around a particular hurt & as always he heard me, understood & enacted a change...to qoute his song...How Lucky am I?
