Three years later, Sara’s cooperative has helped over fifty families 12 poverty. Some of her first trainees now 13 small businesses in the city. Standing on the mountain slope where she once cried alone, Sara watches young people leave — not 14 , but with hope and capability.

By the second week, there were always a few 9 on the table. The table became a steady source of 10 for Leo. Each day, he would walk past as if by accident, his eyes quickly scanning the items before 11 one thing. He ate his half-sandwich first, saving whatever he took for later. It meant he no longer went 12 in the afternoon. At the end of the school year, Maya found a small note in her backpack, “You just made a place where I could eat without 13 .

Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway. Since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. On one hike, I found myself on a bridge made of two partly rotten logs, 2 high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing 3 words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I 4 along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with intense excitement and huge 5 . Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game. Until suddenly, time stood 6 . We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’ s a bear.” I looked up in 7 and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us — the mother in front, her baby behind. 8 scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked.

On our final morning, we were asked to bring back a “ 11 ” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The 12 of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind. Our guide ended by expressing her 13 , praising our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those words warmed my heart and 14 my fear of being aged.

Alfie lives in relationship, and our surprising capacity to 14 one another expanded my perspective on her life and mine.
