This is a good thing. My next story will tell the whole story. Opening a coconut every day with all my might behind my machete. Making lemonade with coconut water. Having a machete in my dishrack. (That’s funny to me.) Wearing a bikini every day, alone, or with clothes on top, temporarily. Swimming at the beach and always running into friends there. Having a cat and a dog who like to go on walks together with me Meeting neighbors who are very cool and fun to hang out with. Walking at night when it is dark and enjoying the silence of the jungle My views of the green grass, the blue ocean, and the clouds drifting past Haleakala, giving me a rare peek at our peak. Connecting on the phone with my family and friends around the world. We really are as close as Spirit. That feels good to me. Dafna in Israel, Vivienne in New Zealand, Amy in Monterey, & Tracy in Burbank…4 of my dear friends are having babies soon. Wishing them a blissful delivery and bundles of joy. With love and prayers for your good day where you are, Claire
