Denise, I think this is my favorite substack so far. We Still Let it Rip. though I enjoy all of them. I've known you since you were a young girl. watched you grow from afar, from a teenager, to a young woman, to a grown adult. It all is so interesting to me how we evolve many times over the course of our lifetime.
Two weeks ago I met with a friend who I have known since 3rd grade. We have lost touch and connected back over our lifetime. The last few years we have stayed very connected, though not seeing each other often enough. She invited me to spend a few days with her a Lake Winnipesaukee, as she and her husband will be moving in that area. I wondered if we would run out of things to talk about this time. As usual, we picked up right where we left off. The weather was awful but we had the best time. And we never stopped talking to the end of our visit. We were way beneath the corn salad!
I think this is the essence of being female. We crave these deep rooted connections. It feeds our soul, at least for me it does. So thank you for this. Please keep doing what you do so well; capturing us. It hits home and for many of us we can relate.
Debby, thank you for this. Truly. Lake Winnipesaukee, awful weather, and you never stopped talking, that is exactly what I want for all of us. You lived it in real time and I love that for you. The fact that you wondered going in whether you'd run out of things to say, (human) and then you were way beneath the corn salad by the end, that's the whole point isn't it. As I reflected further it is as simple as being present and wanting to engage. We have to trust it and show up. I am elated that this one hit you the way it did, and it means even more coming from someone who has known me since I was a young girl. Thank you for reading and for taking the time to write this. I actually could feel my heart grow, it landed right there for me. xx
