Aaaaahhhhhhh! Wow, that does feel good.

For some reason, this reminds of the Doonesbury when one of the girls in Joanie’s daycare announced the birth of her sister by saying, “It’s a baby woman!”

and one day, hopefully, they return to people screaming with joy in the sand. :-)

I love this pic-the wild joyful abandon. I am open to more of that in my life.

“Women begin as people who scream in the sheer joy of sand”.

What a wonderful phrase! Sounds like the beginning of my favourite poem (yet to be written).

Joy,
Arne
