My Samoan Goddess has peaced out.
Last night, myself and 13 members of my Milwaukee family threw our bodies into the warm weather and thanked God for the goodness provided to us. The night was glorious; warm breezes, gentle earth, and clear skies. Absolutely beautiful. I felt like a kid again. Climbing trees, tossing a ball around, dusting the sand out of my hair and making muddy tracks in my kitchen afterwards. The image is quite precious.
We long for moments like these. Carefree times where we forget the little money that we make, the snow that kept us indoors for months, or loved ones we are about to say goodbye to. Instead we look forward to the warmth and light that we feel and savor the moment. I will miss holding my beautiful Samoan. I told her last night, " I have no one to touch whenever I want to now." But it wasn't a sad moment, because her going created an unforgettable night of walking hand in hand with nature and seeing the light in all situations.
I love you my dear. Thank you for this special moment in time.

Last night was a night to remember!! Great times - and yes, she will be missed! I seriously don't know what I'll do for those long two weeks when everyone is gone and I'm still here. :( Hopefully I can read back on this and remind myself to look forward to all of our futures and look fondly on the times we've shared!
