And did you get what
you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want?
To call myself beloved, to feel myself
beloved on the earth.
~Raymond Carver

    Perfect poem for today. Catching up here and sending you big loving hugs- Feb can be SUCH a buzz-kill of a month. Trudging my way through the last bit of this month and hoping you're up to productive, wonderful things, dear friend. 

    (the RC poem reminded me of Just Kids, Patti Smith's book about Robert Mapplethorpe...reading it now and eating it up. Have you read it? You might enjoy her spare, honest, beautiful but unsentimental writing.)
