Dear Friends,

In May, I turned 70… Three score and 10.

Neighbor Eddie Curran reminds me that any days or years going forward belong to the ‘bonus decade’. I'll gladly take what’s given.

Earlier in May, I was in Italy, where I had spent time with a group of winsome travelers making short leisurely stops, three nights each, at Capri, Sorrento, Ravello (!), and Rome. If you have been to the Amalfi Coast

“Sadness can make us bitter or wise. We get to choose.”
― Allen Levi, Theo of Golden

“There is no virtue in advertising one’s sadness. But there is no wisdom in denying it either. And there is the beautiful possibility that great love can grow out of sadness if it is well-tended.”
― Allen Levi, Theo of Golden

“the older I get, the more convinced I am that every hurt the world has ever known is somehow the fault of every person who ever lived. Maybe not directly and never entirely, but somehow, I fear, we own all of the world’s hurts together.”
― Allen Levi, Theo of Golden
