All Of the Places to Love Best

This is the name of a book read to me today in a training.  We were to listen to the book with the idea that we were to do a free form writing after.  We were listen and gather ideas and feelings.  Here is my free form that I wrote in the 5-10 minutes after the story ended.  I though it was kind of fun, and def- def- definitely ( a little Rain Man for KV) shows a place I love the best.

Soft, plush carpet calls my body down.  I am welcomed and rewarded by the opportunity to relax.  I can hear my friends in the kitchen putting their children's last need to rest before sleep consumes them.  Then we are free to play, laugh and relax.  We can relish in each other's smiles and humor. We tease and jeer and create an impenetrable friendship that will always be near to my heart.  The commonality of friendship is one of the places to love best.  There, there is no questioning; only accepting. No faultfinding, only forgiving.  No contention, only happiness.  No separateness, only love.

Thank you to all of my friends who let me lay on their carpets, long after children had gone to bed, and allowed a permanent friendship to be built within my heart.
