Meeting Madison

It is possible to stay connected in this modern world, but there is nothing that can replace presence.  The pauses between conversations, the feeling of a hug, of looking into someone's eyes in the same shared space, seeing the world around you together.  It has been wonderful to be back in Madison, to see these people again, to be in this space, the air on the terrace, suggestions from trusted teachers, kihoping with a group and feeling their support.  Tonight, more storms are on their way; tomorrow, perhaps another blues skies today in the morning, and a drive back to Cincinnati.
