Day 6: 6 September 2015
"There is a place for everything." - Louie
A better day for certain. Lunch out, Lego and the bookstore. And while the bookstore didn't yield new results regarding reading material (books lie unread and we're re-reading Harry Potter for the 6th cycle), the trip did accrue a new puzzle for us. Peaceful, meditative and of a coral reef, a dream of Louie's to see one day. And a drop in visit from an old school chum of his upped the entertainment value. As sleep arrives, I often remain in Louie's room; reflective on the day, his proviso or catching up on messages. Tonight I thought about risk. You risk your heart when you fall in love. That notion has always been romantic for me. How can you risk your heart when loving a friend or a parent or a child? That love is unwavering and safe. When Louie spends time with friends, I'm in awe of their generosity of heart. Is allowing even a wee fraction of their soul to attach to him a risk? Knowing you may get hurt but convinced its absolutely worth it? Maybe all of this generosity of heart and soul and spirit and energy will provide him immortality in the best possible way. You can never read too much Harry Potter. :)
