Learnt

backlog - more deep thoughts from August 22nd.  

I am remembering laying on "A's" bed with him.  It was his bed I desired.  His bed represented warmth, safety, comfort and accommodation.  My bed felt utilitarian at best, yes it coordinated with my room  but  I was in no position, or was without personal permission to spend the money and effort into making it my palace.  His was a palace, a fortress.  Sentimental of the way I felt crawling into my mother's bed as a small child while she held me watching her late night TV.  I found that in "A's" bed.  

It is amazing how a piece of furniture and some textiles can do that.  I am amazed.
