Utter Rapture

This has been my first week back to work.
I still move slow, and with a few "tools" to help me walk, get around OK.
Work, brings me, joy and laughter. Thrown in with some big time "crazy", it has always been a healing place for me. There is something sacred about the middle grades student, like hope is still possible.
I enjoyed leaving early all week, to nurse myself, and reflect on this Giant Broken Leg Saga and my luck?? When.....
Just this week, I felt utter rapture, as I watched Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand,on Oprah!! If my leg had not been broken, and I had not left early to come home, I would have missed this, heart stopping, Way We Were, two people I love!!! Mesmerized, I sat and held my heart, like at any minute it would stop. Robert Redford sends me over the moon, I thought at one moment, he could see me through the TV!!! One of my very favorite movies, The Way We Were, I have never recovered from. When she touched his hair, to move it from his forehead, mother of god, life altering love story. Seeing them together elicited so many memories, youthful hope. My Bobby, My Barbara, My luck!!
