my(as it happened)self he was
-but now that fiend and i are such
immortal friends the other’s each

🍎 Today’s Health Question ~ What’s Small, Red, and Packed with More Vitamin C than an Orange?
Strawberries
The small yet mighty fruit, strawberries, is loaded with health benefits.

💡 Something to Think About
I enjoy dancing. Dancing is a relationship between the people dancing and the music. When all is in harmony the dancers and the music are as one. There’s lots of listening, and letting each person’s movement flow toward the other. It’s the way good relationships work. Dance on.
