I love this reflection, so much, and the imagery it brings. It makes me think of my beloved Italian grandmother, who literally used to stand on her balcony, looking out for me to return to her home for lunch when I visited. Walking back, Iā€™d look up and see her in her blue house dress, waiting. I pray that she is one of my balcony people, now, and I would never have put the two images together until reading your beautiful post. Such a gift ā€“ thank you!

Yes, off to the side but always holding onto hearts and spirited love and laughter. . .
