Girlfriends: Every couple of years I meet a woman I just HAVE to have in my life. I am learning how to create friendships with them; it's a skill-in-development. I count the discipline of making time for it as part of my activity-level time. The women with whom I wish to be friends turn out to be a pretty awesome group of pistols. One of them has a gift of being able to gather groups. She hosts "campfire" evenings..... at various state parks. She is one of the women I would have picked if I had met her under different circumstances-- instead, she picked me. Each new friendship sends ripples of health on all levels, around the circle, whether the people in it get together or ever meet each other. (I'm care-full about who I add to that circle.)
Seeing a vision emerge: I've writ about this before, but sometimes what we think is procrastination is actually patience while waiting for conditions or people-presences to be right. That is only usually visible in hindsight. To see it in foresight is work that can be done, intentionally.
