Complex feelings

Talking to home

Human life has its ups and downs.  An
understatement if ever there was one.  Sometimes
when I see Steven on Skype when he's
traveling for work -- he is so upset at the
end of the day.  Work with all its rewards
can be challenging and frustrating.

This must have been one of those days.
At home you hug in the kitchen, sit down
to dinner with flowers and candles.  Apart
none of that calming reassurance is available.

Have a loving-seeing-each-other day.
P.S.  As I write this I hear Steven washing
dishes in the kitchen -- a lovely sound.
