Thank you for the precious ping...
Your poems lighten everything...

Does anyone know where this comes from?
Have loved it for years, but don't know it's author:

"Oh the joy, the inexpressible joy of feeling safe with a friend. Having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but throw them out, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful friend will take what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away."

I saw this poem a couple of days ago; I may have posted it here. I will look for it. I hope I saved the name of the author.

Good Morning.
