Homage to Rudi on his Birthday

The day I met Rudi, he was standing quietly in the kitchen doorway. There was something different about this man.

We approached the door, and I remember clinging to the corner elbow of my husband’s jacket out of fear to meet someone so expansive, yet so humble.

Let your slurry sit in a warm place for a few hours. It will harden into the most perfect rubbery superglue.

Fortunately the day to day confusion is minimal here, which has given us precious time to be quiet and meditate deeply. In spite of many bizarre reactions we…
