The moment of your life you described is wonderful but don't try to hold on to it or it will turn from something unique to something mundane. I hope that most of your life will consist of such moments and I'll be there to share then and read about it in your blog :) I loved the quality of writing and enjoyed it.

We are kindred souls. :) I’m glad it resonated with you, as your pieces about life and nature in Israel usually do with me. We are kindred souls. :)

As an ex-Silver Springer who made very good use of those 'blackberry nights' as a teenager; as a writer; a runner; a short woman married to a man whose name begins with D; a huge fan of berry fruit, scarce here; a lover of poetry and poetic prose, where emotion is your style guide, and to very great effect here; as one who also grows restless and determined and lazy in the same instant; and one who also puts greater stock in dreams than in dreamhouses - I truly loved it. Made my hair frizz. :) I totally felt this delicious, sticky piece of writing.

And totally smelled like summer to me, allthough, of course, not the summer here. Now I need some blackberries, too. Fav. line: "D stands under a tree and, since I’m short, I stand under D, and it’s just the two of us and the steady drip of the rain. " This was simply beautiful.
