Now
March 11, 2010
I got what I wanted. Time has slowed. I feel calm. I feel still. I trust that I am safe. I am safely bound for a wonderful life. This is what I am doing, I don’t need to worry if you are doing the same. I don’t need to wait to see if you will stay. I am staying. I am committing to this place, to a communal lifestyle, to Future Farm, to ceramics, to group parenting, to teaching, to loving with all that I have. You don’t have to. But I hope you will. I hope to see you between the garden beds or in the orchard. I hope to take my dinner into the yard and sit beside you on the grass. And our children will tumble from my arms to yours.

Deal.
A deal is a deal.
I know, I already said “deal”. Jeezeee!
I’m just saying. It’s in writing.
Listen, I gave my word, ok. Calm down.
Your word is deal. I like that.
Yep. Deal. What’s your word?
