An aspect that comes in Deep Sharing,
From words of one’s truth, no comparing—
Connection, so real.
Knowing that we’ll
Hold our shared time as “trust-bearing.”

With whom do you get your “Big Sharing?”

An adult grandchild,
Living several hundred miles away,
Came to visit.
Such a treat!

She said ” I like Big Sharing.”
We gave that to each other.

I too, like Big Sharing.
The kind that lets us know and
Be known with a broader picture.


Unusual experience of total focus,
Shared memories,
Current pursuits and interests.
Accurate, expanded pictures of
Our lives outside of familial roles.

We got to know each other 
So much more
With our deep visiting.

If I were using a metaphor —-
It’s about weaving a richer tapestry
More color, more complicated design,
Showing the depth of artistry in a person’s life.

Certainly matches my Shift # 4,
“Connect with Others.” 

May we give and take in Connection …
Precious life expander.
Giving me a life lived more fully.

Hugs.
Lin

Lin and two loved ones
Puzzle & read aloud. Can make a great evening
Bob setting up new puzzle.
  1. Oh so fun to your family again! And I am embracing the lines about spending time with family:

    It’s about weaving a richer tapestry
    More color, more complicated design,
    Showing the depth of artistry in a person’s life.

    Thank you for sharing this Lin!

  2. Wonderful, Lin!

    This is a very big thing to say “Yes” to–and the rewards extend outward.

    Like your biking, this is also a kind of courage, it seems to me!

    Love, Leslie
