An actualized person can be comfortable and secure when alone, but we humans are social creatures and having friends than can spontaneously break out into song is the true key to happiness.

That is exactly what happened last weekend at one of our many summertime get-together events. Singing can start as quickly as Mika (at right) turning and remarking, "Aimee, I would like to sing you a song..."

Mika made an excellent assortment of food. There was cous-cous and gazpacho, fresh guacamole and chips. Jer made freeze squeezed lime juices and Chun Hua brought a beautiful assortment of cut fruit served in a watermelon rind. I brought a cheesecake with strawberry rhubarb sauce made straight from my garden. It was an excellent time made and had by all.
