I met someone recently who I&#8217;ve met before but this time I saw him, I looked into his eyes and I saw his kind soul and I felt connected. I think it is that way with souls &#8211; sometimes the window opens. I spoke on the phone to a dear friend who I&#8217;ve loved from the time we met &#8211; he&#8217;s in a rough place now &#8211; and I felt an overflow of love for him as we spoke and I told him so. I said I love you and he said I love you back. Our birthdays are near and we are going to go celebrate even though he does not feel too social. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been an odd day. A man stopped me on the street and said he&#8217;s seen me around and he wanted to tell me how much he thinks I&#8217;m beautiful and he held my hand and asked for a hug and all that was going on and then he said, &#8220;I&#8217;ll be truthful with you, I&#8217;m married.&#8221; And I dipped my sunglasses and looked in his eyes and said, &#8220;And I&#8217;ll be truthful with you, I don&#8217;t mess around with married men.&#8221; Later, another incident happened where a woman pulled up behind me and got out of the car and said she has been seeing me around and she wanted to give me this card that she&#8217;s had on her dashboard for a while now &#8211; it&#8217;s her mother who has alopecia and she started a foundation to help young girls with alopecia accept their baldness rather than hide under wigs &#8211; her whole life is dedicated to bald is beautiful and she just wanted to tell me that I&#8217;m beautiful. <\/p>\n<p>Well I tell you &#8211; it&#8217;s been a day. <\/p>\n<p>And I came home to watch my two little pups scamper around the backyard. I turned down dinner at the Taco truck for my PJ shorts and a big oversized tee shirt another friend left me when he visited from LA &#8211; I turned the Taco truck down for some much needed rest. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"19393\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/?attachment_id=19393\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?fit=2448%2C3264\" data-orig-size=\"2448,3264\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.4&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 4S&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1396632286&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.28&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;64&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0083333333333333&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6392\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?fit=640%2C853\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?resize=640%2C853\" alt=\"IMG_6392\" width=\"640\" height=\"853\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?w=2448 2448w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?resize=225%2C300 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?resize=768%2C1024 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_6392.jpg?w=1920 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And have I mentioned, it&#8217;s been a day?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I came across a bunch of inspirational cards that a friend in San Rafael had given me many moons ago.
