Survival often depends on a specific focus: a relationship, a belief, or a hope balanced on the edge of possibility. Or something more ephemeral: the way the sun passes through the hard, seemingly impenetrable glass of a window and warms the blanket, or how the wind, invisible but for its wake, is so loud one can hear it through the insulated walls of a house.

Lovely, pal, and I like your ‘escapist’ header image, too….
Thanks Lori. Header is all Susan – her photo at Pear Tree Point up at Pear Tree Point Beach Park on Long Island Sound a few miles away.
Food and shelter and this, yes…
