316 - Safe with my BFF

Via Flickr:
Oh, the comfort --
The inexpressible comfort of feeling
safe with a person,
Having neither to weigh thoughts,
Nor measure words -- but pouring them
All right out -- just as they are --
Chaff and grain together --
Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them --
Keep what is worth keeping --
and with the breath of kindness
Blow the rest away.
~ Dinah Maria (Mulock) Craik (1826-1887)

It had taken me a few days to internally process the week in Sayulita, but we had from 10 am - 5 pm today to do just that.
