What a coincidence, Christina! Or, maybe not a coincidence, since friendships tend to form around shared values and passions. Looking forward to celebrating Valentine’s with you and Denise.

YES. A safe place, a haven, a refuge. And more than one place can be home. When my husband takes me in his arms, wherever we are, I am home. It’s profound. Thanks for commenting, Jen.

I adore Tracy Grammer! I was away listening to her CD all weekend and having her songs rolling through my mind. So glad you got to that concert!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the importance of home lately. This place that we go to retreat, to energize ourselves for our journeys out in the world. But always home again, home is the place I feel safe always.

Nicely said. Let’s all remember our only home, and treat her well!

Having read Chapter 1 of Revelle I have no complaint about the blog. I see you working hard and making important choices to reach your goals. And doing it joyfully. You are truly an inspiration!

I second what Christina said. All this good, underground stuff going on . . . we need to hold it up to each other.

Lovely blog, Barbara. I shared your swell of pride at knowing good people involved in good neighborhood work and finding a route to be part of that as well. The fact that it’s happening all over the city in ways and at times we mostly don’t ever hear about is so hopeful. And what a luminous photo of you!

Update on December 26:OK, my husband gave me a Kindle for Christmas — along with a hardbound, beautifully in-the-flesh volume of Ann Patchett’s latest novel, ‘State of Wonder’. I’m going to give the Kindle (marvelously small and slim) an honest try. I may use it more to keep up with my favorite blogs than to read books. But I have no intention of getting addicted to it, or of paying attention to it at the expense of human beings!
