today is holi. that one day of the year that all rules, gender segregated boundaries, and desires of staying clean are tossed to the wayside. and folks around india will donn their play clothes in order to throw powdered color on each other. we played a day early at SB because ain't nothin gettin us out of the house today... i'm still picking pink clumps from my hair. and looking like i just played high school powder puff from the green streaks stained on my cheeks. but as something done among friends. a celebration of folks you love. i see a beautiful expression. and as we move from this season of lent to a season of celebration (again thank you david landt for reminding me of this great movement!) i see that on this good friday, i contain a space to invite celebration in. moving from a season of no's to a season of yes. and reflection on the God of life in the face of death. the savior of suffering and the promise of great love. happy holy.

You are looking khub shundor with green on your face. Yours is a beauty undimmed by neon powder.

I love you! Oh today I miss you and India so much; why can't jumping on a plane be something easily done on impulse???
