Worth

School age kids are ripe for friendship. Good and bad. hanging out. Enjoying life. Yea, I know life and the world is tragic, but somehow in the midst it is not. Kind of like grace. I experienced it in Tully's last night. Three girls about 10 years old were with each other as only kids can be. Heaven is like this? Hopefully. I could not hear what they were saying but spirit about them was heavenly.
I thought about my mom. She still has friends from that age in her life. Still in contact. Still make a point of seeing each other. What a great thing. Grace here if you catch my drift. Guys are not like that. We seem to need a common hobby or interest to get together. Even that doesn't mean much if the want to isn't there as well. Ghosts from our past. Maybe as a kid performance was key to your friendship quotient. Self esteem. Like life so fragile. Misunderstood. Not seen. Victim of the culture. Expendable.

I miss all of my friends. I miss the connection. Comrade. What a great word. When I was growing up it was maginalized as communist and that was bad. Evil in fact. I want to live with comrades.
