2010.06.30

  • A nice walk to the market with Uma. My ever-patient loving dog always tags along and awaits as I shop a bit and take photos of doors and events.
  • A delicious meal at my friends’ home. M & I were gracious hosts as always and they showed me their splendid veggie patch that I helped plant. The effort was theirs and a bit of mine at first, but there was a hint of a proud smile in my face since I gave them most of the seeds and gave them much guidance to some techniques and suggestions. We had a wonderful talk over dinner with much laughter about all the idiosyncrasies and surrealism of cultures in general but particularly our own :D
  • The trip to my friends’ home reminded me of the goodness in people of smaller towns. When I was a bit hesitant when the combi (a small van for public transportation) dropped me off at the stop, the driver asked me: “Whose house are you going to?”. I replied, and he didn’t know, but a passenger gave me the directions!
    When I boarded another combi for the way back, a passenger offered me and others some peaches from a batch she had. I reciprocated with some beet and carrot seeds that she picked from the seed envelopes I had. Goodness is all around :)
