Lazy, lovely Sunday afternoon

Today I had lunch with a wonderful new friend and sister-in-Christ, Carol.  We met through LinkedIn.  Yes, real-life connections can and do happen there. We spent the afternoon getting to know each other.  We shared our stories and our dreams.  We marveled at all the things we're discovering that we have in common, and we've already started finding ways we can encourage and lift each other up.  

Defining family

Yesterday I saw Eat Pray Love and I was moved beyond words. I know the movie didn't get rave reviews, and I hadn't read the best-selling book, but I do like Julia Roberts and I've always been fascinating by tales of exploration and transformation, so I went to see it and I absolutely loved it .
