East Nashville, TN: Just had a lovely dinner with my former across-the-street neighbors from my last residence. It was such a treat to have them come to my neck of the woods, celebrate my new home and share in delicious food and wine... and an evening stroll to the restaurant down the street. After much laughter, deep discussions about the importance of being authentic and a bit of reminiscing about the Idaho years, I could feel a slight shift from the bitter to the sweet. If only for this moment, I am grateful that these good neighbors could help me see the silver lining peeking through again.
