2. "To share" personified.
3. Lap swim at the pool where the old ladies with wrinkly arms did not dispense advice but watched alertly, protectively, over me.
4. A free pass—however briefly—to wear giant corduroy overalls.
5. The sleep, a freight train of exhale.
6. That day in Tucson, Arizona where we sat on a bench eating orange muffins and dared to sunbathe the stomach for just a second and the man who nodded and said, "Exactly."
