Nor me! I think of it often and will remember it always. It was one of the sweetest moments ever online with my very special friends. Hugs and angelic vibes sent to all of you this morning!

My son is in the kitchen..playing his computer and listening to music..he is listening to Cornelius Vresvik..a danish born man that lived in Sweden from the age of about 10. He has a song called, Rönnerdahl, that is a dreamy song about the summer. Many midsommers ago..at a midsummer party..Susan sat by the pool, listening to just this song and dreaming herself away. My husband (then) patted me on the shoulder and said,"look at Susan..." And the man she was listening to, playing the song on his guitar, accompanied by others too..was the father of a boy who sat in a wheelchair due to his illness and would for the rest of his life..I mean the boy..his son, sat in the wheel chair..that father is now gone too..he took his life a few years later..because life hurt too much for him, as his wife told me when I met her on the pier by our lake the spring after his death..the year of this midsummer celebration was 1982..and Susan died at the end of August..

But I am starting to find that these memories are not only painful..they are the place where joy meets sorrow..or life meets death..I have never really experienced this place..but I am finding it now..more and more often..

Ohhh life..sweet LIFE!!!

Dotsie..I feel as tho I am being led to these thoughts, feelings and almost revelations..

I am glad that I checked this thread today..life has been so busy lately..my job is just sooo taxing at the moment. This kids are wild..so active and not listening to us at all. Remember that I work with a multicultural group as it´s called here in Sweden. The children are mostly from Turkey and kurds from Turkey too.

And then I read this thread..and remembered where I was at just a few days ago!!! I don´t want to loose what was happening then..but I guess everything is meant to be..and if I was "led"..perhaps by Susan (?), then I am being led now too..I hope that I am listening!!!
