As far as friends go, you can't get much better than Kavita. She's been a faithful friend since 1999. Full of insight, and she always reaches for fairness and a kindness and a certain kind of embrace.
We go for pages and pages in e-mail, discussing our thoughts on issues very close to the heart. Today we were discussing what love means.
Kavita replied to my latest e-mail by saying this:
"Love is simple."
I was floored. The simplest phrases are always the most elegant, the most profound.
I replied with this thought:
I like the idea: "Love is simple." It really is. That's such a theme on so many levels. It's funny how we have to make all these flips and turns and be wrung out and flapped about before we can come to that conclusion.
So, no matter how many roads I travel and how silly my mistakes may be, I know where to return. "Love is simple" will from this point become home for me.

Truely a wonderful place to call home.
oi Ruth, I never knew you were running a blog... I found this place by accident, by bumping into your entries found on hawaiistories.com.
I saw the mug and thought, "hey, that looks like..."
My eyes scroll below the mug.
"Ruth."
So how's everything going? : )

What a site you have there.
Take care,
