Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I went for a walk this morning with a friend.  Then I talked to my daughter and granddaughter on the phone.  We are all figuring out how to stay six feet from each other.  My daughter said she and her neighbor decided they could set a lawn chair six feet from each other and talk.  Walking is harder, as we weave a bit too close and then one lags back but then the other instinctively lags as well.  It takes some getting used to, for sure.  I'm videoing stories for my grandkids.  The little ones like it.  My almost twelve year old granddaughter is missing all the social activity, which at her age is essential.  We all know now this is going to be a long haul.  Luckily, I had just bought a book by Stephen Batchelor about solitude.  There's going to be a lot of that.  Last night my husband and I watched "Raising Arizona", and laughed a bit.  The last line:  "maybe Utah" is my favorite in all of filmdom.  We all need to dream now, about the fuzzy future, where we will all be together again.
