chiaroscuro
the word of the day?
chiaroscuro. in art, it's all about light and dark; a study in contrasts.
i'm writing from the hospital where my young friend has just undergone back surgery.
the clouds are heavy outside, dropping hail. she's resting now, but not too long ago we both saw lightning and heard the thunder rumble outside the halls of OHSU. welcome to summer vacation.
my young friend is honest about the pain, but is also quite a trooper.
and a couple of days ago i had my cleansing end of the year cry. as counter-intuitive as it sounds, it felt good and cleared my soul's atmosphere for reflecting on one of the best years of my life.
i guess you could say we're both appreciating the light.
