Kate

I've been a bit busy to blog...Kate is in town.

Who is Kate? *soft smile* She's our initiant. We met the summer of 2002 because of LARP and the characters that Beloved and she played were very involved. There was sooooo much going on, the situation was thick with complicated emotions and happenings, and if I started to write about all of it, I would have a book before long...

The cliffnotes version is that Kate had words that defined feelings I had carried forever. Words like polyamory and compersion. That these words were first spoken to Beloved...and Beloved came to me and asked about taking her as a lover...created a rift that took months to cross. Somehow they were patient enough with my wavering to not give each other up OR to give up on me, something I will forever be grateful for.

Years later, we are still friends despite the 1200 miles between us...and she's visiting this week. I love her...Beloved loves her. We are exploring more...slowly, gently...wondering where our love and tenderness might take us.

*wry smile* and I'm forever grateful that she's patient and persistant. She whispers in my hair that it is worth waiting for the right person. Thank you dearling...
