Of strangers ...

There is something about strangers and strange circumstances. I enjoy finding friendships in situations when people expect to get mugged - it is like finding a beautiful garden unexpectedly, when lurking at the end of a dark alley way ... or like finding a needle in a haystack. Always makes a believer out of me.

But then we wonder why we need to lurk down dark alleyways - even when we are really looking for beautiful gardens. And in the light of introspection comes clarity - and the joy that life always leads me to beautiful gardens.

Had a wonderful week (very good weather), and a great weekend. There was a thunderstorm last night - and Ernie had to be retrieved from under the bed (he is scared of lightning). The morning was fresh and clear.

Joy!
