No writing today. Spent my lunch break focused on inverted bouldering, and hung out this evening with author, F/friend and fellow spiritual traveler Elissa from Portland. In spite of some of the rotten things happening in the world, witnessing (via twitter and other media) the good hearts of my friends as they reach out to other humans (assembling a care package) and creatures (volunteering to clean BP oil from ocean birds) kept me hopeful. People time is good time.
