chelidonMy partner, myself and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lylythe_strega are off to the hospital, other Lovely Housemates (along with Pan and the other stalwart felines) to hold down the fort at home, Forest off to school then to my dad's until Sunday night (believe it or not, there'll be 20+ people here at the house over the weekend for yezida's Feri training -- and it will be good to have a house full of lively Feri folk), and...I have hope for the future, I hold space for best possible outcome, for swift and complete healing and fruitful life and joy for my love, Claudia, as the new moon begins its cycle towards fullness, as the season and the days swell and lengthen with each new dawn, as the sun grows ever brighter and warmer, and the receptive earth responds to his touch, as the trees bud and the ground grows yielding and moist, as seeds sprout and the birds return and all of the animals emerge from their slumbers and their burrows, the streams thaw and rush with wild force, as the last snow on the ground fades away, the breeze carries the rich loamy smell of Spring, and the full flush of springtime growth comes to the land all around us. Life is all around us. lifeforce is abundant and nourishes us. The blessings and beauty of the earth, of the multiverse, surround us. The love of the gods and of our own human and divine selves holds us and heals us.
Last night we and our Lovely Housemates went out for Tex-Mex and some very good margaritas, and much fellowship and fun was had. Having a house full of support has made the whole journey less hard. Afterwards, at home, we put our son to bed, housemates went off to do some magickal work in support, and my partner thanked me for not giving her platitudes, for not saying the easy answers, the comforting lies, for facing this thing with relentless support and without flinching, head-on with her. With but few exceptions over the years, we've always been fully honest with one another, peers and partners, and looked whatever came right in the eye. No wondering "what did s/he really mean by that?" No reading between the lines. No convenient illusions. We agreed that throughout everything that has happened over the past 21 years, the whole amazing, wild wacky journey, neither one of us would trade a minute of it. It's all a part of the Tale, each and every piece -- sweet, bitter, joyful, sorrow, laughter and tears, an essential part of the whole, right where it should be. No regrets. None. That's a good way to live, with anyone, with yourself, as much as you can.
And she's gone to take a walk by the stream, and her doctor just called to check in, and now we go onto another step of the journey. Wish us luck.
