things come together in surprising ways and you think how natural and forget for the moment how things fall apart. i was thinking with charlie yesterday how natural it feels with her chasing the ball and following me around. the shift was almost imperceptible, seamless, like felting, where you feel it in your hands when the fibers join together and feel so good and sensual and right and, natural. it didn't happen with bear in a year, and i think it was two with lulu. but then one day you may feel an easement and know, this is not just wishful, not just a good day, this is your new thing, where you were going and where you find yourself with the dog now.

oh but i was starting out to say it's good to share but take care, with your feet planted on the ground, improvising, but not too much, and with people who care, and don't expect too much of you.
