a miracle, again

More rare than the possibility of cancer vanishing is the acquisition of a reasonable rental in New York City.  And this we found, an apartment available for cancer patients post-hospital and for a "capable adult caregiver" (that's me, I'm faking it) while patient is in hospital.

So, a miracle.  Again.

From the Latin miraculum, "object of wonder," a miracle is neither a supernatural event nor a product of faith.  It is experiencing life as pure wonder, freedom, and freshness in every moment.  That's it.  

From this point of view, we've had a wonder-filled weekend.   I had some time away, enjoying a lazy afternoon with a friend at a winery cafe overlooking the lake; together we've hiked and picnicked and been supported by many, many kind thoughts and offers of housing and cat care and visits while in New York.

Again, thank you.
