Moment of Zen: The Beckoning

By Joe

Sometimes, your warm bed just beckons you to stay. Today is one of those days. I’m just sorry that my bed doesn’t have the same beauty beckoning me as in the picture above.

About Joe

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe

I know precisely what you mean … bed is such a warm, cozy, safe place. Truly, I love my bed.

  I love my bed too, though I’d like to have someone to share it with. For now, I share it only with my cat.

    Likewise … or rather, she shares it with me … she’s quite the bed hog !

    Likewise, mine only allows me to sleep on the part of the bed she doesn’t want. She’s quite the bed hog too.
