Thanks to Trish and Annie for hosting tonight’s sharing on accompaniment; to Marty King for testifying about being on Arco those last weeks 20 years ago; to each person who read aloud, listened, spoke and/or opened up to her or his neighbor; to those who brought good food; and to Courtney Barrett for accompanying me since 1998: For it is indeed true:
“We have all know the long loneliness and we know that the only solution is love and that love comes with community.” It had all happened while Mev was laying there dying on Arco, and it was still going on at Karen House, and I imagine it is going on in hundreds of thousands of places at this very minute.
