Your essay captivated my brain and my heart ❤️ today.
It was jam - packed with many perspectives from far away and the here and now.
One the of things I enjoy the most is this. Your words flow, short stop flow, up then to down then changes in topic. Also, you change earthly locations smoothly in your stories. I like that.
Once, I was married to an American man who was raised in San Francisco. He went to Mexico alot as a child and a teen. He and I traveled there several times, to the Old Mexico. Looking for scorpions in the desert, swimming in the ocean with no one around. In grocery stores seeing the way children are revered along with the chihuahuas! 😁
I understand your love of this land and it's many people's.
You mention all the changes in your family. I am sorry to hear this, Pat .Getting older brings so many challenges and deaths. Deep breaths. What are we to do?
I don't know.
Enjoy ourselves to the very best of our ability, I guess. For me, nature pulls me in. Keeps the bliss going.
Thanks Charlotte, it is always a pleasure to get a response, i get so few and i am pleasantly pleased that my words strike some sort of inner bells.... i know they do with me... thanks again i have a few more ready to upload soon... cheers... maybe be seeing you this summer again, probably a last time but one never knows...
