a long time ago, in the middle of the night, at the edge of a desert dance floor, a bit south of joshua tree, i found a young lady and sat in front of her... without speaking we connected and communicated and before i understood what was happening, our hands touched and they started dancing, pushing faster and faster until they blurred and all i could see in front of me was a field of yellow flowers... and i remembered that i was still deeply in love with this delightful creature even though about 2500 yrs had passed since we last met...you know, back when she was buddha.. or the tree he sat under... or the air he breathed and... so was i...
6 or 7 years later, maybe a hundred shared dance floors, conversations, emails and dozens of times i would drive 100 miles just to have lunch with her, despite distance and time apart..i still remember how to be in love with her, unconditionally, no matter what, without ever really needing anything back...
you see suki became so precious to me so quickly that i instantly realized that i needed to raise the bar, set a new standard for all of my relationships, honoring only what is most positive in the moment at each moment.
i miss you sweet sister and often wish you were close enough to see you more often and at the same time know that we are connected always in love.
