Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

We had a reunion at my house of a religions of the world group that met once a month for ten years.  It's been twelve years since we've met, although I've seen everyone since at groups, parties and in the neighborhood.  Some are my closest friends.  It felt so good to eat, talk and share our lives again, and I was moved deeply.  These women are absolute treasures to me.  We've all had challenges to face and live complicated lives.  We are indominitable.  Their strength shores up mine.  We shared pictures from this year's women's march.  We told grandchild stories, we cried, we laughed.  I am truly blessed to be surrounded by such friends.
