Having sent out an email about an impending dance Reena and I are hosting in St. Louis, it is amazing how voices from the past, both near and far, have come whispering in. A high school friend, a contra buddy, a prospective Haverford student's mother who I have never met, a teacher at a former school, and more. It is a wonderful web of new and old connections rippling around this event in time. It is as if all these connections are there all along, and this event and this email shone light or set in motion fibers of my social network that had lain dormant. Wonderful memories, new stories, and a feeling of extended community all have come from this experience.
It is a veritable cornucopia of good feeling!
