It’s time to come clean. I need to unburden my soul. I’ve had an intervention with myself and here’s the cold, hard truth:

One of the things that Mr. Blue Eyes and I do together is read books and discuss them. Can I tell you what a joy that is for me? I’ve always wanted to be able to do that with a partner.

Earlier today a friend sent me this post that was written by Angie Miller, one of Evie Spodnik’s colleagues. It captures her spirit so perfectly that I feel compelled to quote her here. You can find the original post at: http://nhtoy2011.blogspot.com/2011/07/living-today-for-evie.html
There was a gathering tonight of Evie’s Sacred Circle Dance community and people traveled …
