Sunday. It rained last night. again. but it did not wash away the memory of Saturday.

I was invited to a birthday party, which turned out to be an all day 'event'. it was wonderful. it was fun. good conversations, laughter, delicious food, a soothing breeze. fireworks and a red/orange sunset. stories were told, moments were shared. this gathering of people cheered me up. life was put on hold and we all seemed to melt into the moment, into this 'celebration'. sometimes the alignment of the stars seem to be just perfect. what a wonderful first day of the month. the memory melts the grey rain clouds of today away and the late morning coffee feels wonderful. for once.
