Hammock with feet

If you read this blog and look at the pictures you'll realize I have a thing for hammocks. I believe they are closest thing to being back in the womb as we can get. The sway gently and we use them when it is warm outside. I can fall asleep so quickly in mine, it is like magic. Today I got a call from a former student worker who I had fired like 8 years ago. His call just came out of the blue, like magic, and he apologized for being such a dick (his term, not mine). I remember having to sit down with him and try to explain, diplomatically, why his behavior was so problematic. I mentioned to him on the phone that I felt I had been too hard on him. He told me that it had helped him a great deal. I'm thankful he called to apologize and acknowledge the past. Life can be so magical in such little ways.
