Ms ISH..

Ohh goodness.. I live about 90 minutes by train from midtown Manhattan. If I weren't going on my retreat, I'd be GALing and asking if you'd like to meet in the city that never sleeps. Next time you're in NYC, let me know!

How beautiful to be at sea, leisurely too. Don't you find the endless horizon soothing? And traveling too! I spent my junior year of college in Italy and was a winsome wanderer. What a lovely way to experience the emerging you.. with and without your spouse.

Our 25th anniversary is on the 10th, but he never encouraged any celebration. Now I know why! Enjoy and relish the experiences this trip will give you.

My new thought: Respect

Respect myself,
Respect those around
And embrace those who respect me.

The other thing I've found if that I LISTEN.. (and that includes not talking AT all) boy do I hear a whole lot more!

You are darling!

*hugs*
