This morning's witness is about my day last Saturday. I had the privilege of joining a group of young adults in the Boston area who belong to a ministry called Encounter. This is different than the Encounter School of Ministry that I attended. This ministry is a group of Catholic young adults that get together as a large group on the third Saturday of the month. They meet at a church in Boston, and they gather for Mass. Then, they head downstairs to the church hall for breakfast and fellowship. After breakfast is over, they gather in groups. One group is for those who have been there before and they meet and do formation. They learn a topic or something that will help them when they go out and minister. Last week they talked about Mother Theresa I believe. They also have a group for newcomers where they explain all about the ministry. They talk about what you should and should not do while you are out there. They give you tips about what works and what doesn't. Then, they show you a video about the group in Colorado that they designed their group after. This group is called “Christ in the City.”When you go to their website, the first thing you see is a quote from Mother Theresa that says, “Many people talk about the homeless, but few talk to them.” Mother Theresa talks about something called the Poverty of loneliness. The approach of “Christ in the City,” and also this Encounter Ministry in Boston, is Healing through Relationship. These two ministries spend time each week building relationships with the homeless on the streets. It is through seemingly small interactions—the disarming power of eye contact, a genuine smile, stopping to say hello and learn someone's name—that the seeds of friendship take root, and a journey of healing begins.There are lots of homeless ministries in Boston, and they are all a little different. I know two people from my class who go out on Saturday mornings in Boston and pray over people. They head to Mass Ave and another place where there is a large homeless population, and they pray with them for healing and for conversion. They pray for an end to their addiction, and whatever it is they need prayer for. There are also other groups that bring the homeless food, clothing, or other material things they may need. Encounter's primary goal is to build a relationship with the homeless. They walk the same paths each week so that they really get to know the people on their path. They become friends with them, and then they pray for their friends during their prayer time.After this group time, they meet up in the church again to break into small groups. They usually only have 2-3 people in a group, and they try to have at least one male and one female in a group, as males and females both offer something unique to any situation. Before heading out, the priest will say a prayer. Then, everyone heads out to their specific section of Boston to minister for about two hours or so.This weekend was my first weekend joining this group. Mostly because I did not know about it before but also because it is for young adults, and I am no longer a young adult. However, I have had the privilege of spending time with 6 of the ladies in this group lately, and so I wanted to see what it is they do for ministry. They invited me to join in this week. I was in a group of four going out for ministry. We decided to walk to our area. As we walked, we talked and got to know each other a bit. Once we got to our area, we decided to split up into groups of two as larger groups can be intimidating, and also, we can reach more people if we split up.I was with a young man named Duke. He had been doing this ministry for a few years, I believe. He was great at initiating conversations with those we met. I was nervous because I had never done this before and also because I am not always great at starting conversations or keeping them going. However, it was a great day. We first met this man who Duke has seen around a lot. We talked with him for a while, and he seemed happy to have the company and to have someone listen to him. He said he always has a goal each day for what he will spend the money that he makes on, this way, he doesn't waste it on just cigarettes. I thought this was a great idea. Saturday, he was trying to make enough money to buy a cheap watch as he doesn't have a phone anymore, and it is really hard getting through the day without knowing what time it is. Especially if he has to be back at the shelter at a certain time.What I loved about the first man we talked to is that he seemed happy. He talked about how he knew God was always looking out for him. He was thankful to God for all he had. He was grateful that he wasn't sleeping on the streets and that he had a shelter to stay in. He said he was sleeping on the floor at the shelter, but that was better than the streets so he was grateful. He said he was waiting for disability to go through so he could maybe get an apartment. He seemed very optimistic and that was heartwarming to see. He had hope and that is always nice.Next, we talked to a woman who seemed sad. She didn't really want to talk to us until she found out that we were not social workers. Then she opened up a bit. She had a really hard childhood, and that was hard to hear. She had unspeakable things happen to her from the time she was young, and it was so sad to hear her talk about it. She also seemed to be a bit confused as she said a lot of things that didn't make sense. We stayed with her for a little while, but conversations were hard as she didn't really answer any questions and just repeated the same things over and over again. We left after a bit. I think she liked that we stopped and said hi, though. I think she liked having someone listen to her.The next guys we walked by, we almost didn't stop. I am not sure why, I think it was probably because he was smoking a cigarette, and he didn't really look homeless. Although you never really know who is homeless. Not all homeless people look a certain way. I am not sure why we didn't seem to be stopping. I do know when we looked at him and he gave us a big smile, we knew we should stop and say hi. He was very friendly and talkative. He told us how he used to be homeless, and he used to sleep on the street corner right next to where we were. He said he had a good job and was doing well, but then his drinking took over, and he lost everything. He said he was pretty sick from living on the streets. He had to have his toes amputated because he had diabetes. He said it got so bad he could barely walk. He had a walker, and if he walked for more than a few feet, he would be winded.He had serious health issues, and one day, it all got to be too much for him. He said he got down on his knees and cried out to the Lord for help. The Lord helped him. He went into rehab and gave up all drinking and substance use. The only thing he does now that he doesn't like is smoking. He said he knows the Lord will help him give that up one day also. He got a social worker who was able to find him an apartment within 3 months. Previously, he had been on a list, but he was too busy with alcohol to go in and check on where he was on the list. He is also taking classes at some centers in Boston. They give him a stipend for transportation so he can get to and from the center. He is learning how to use computers and how to troubleshoot if they aren't working. It is a 12-week class, and after that, he will enter an Intensive Outpatient Therapy class where they will reinforce what he learned at rehab and help him develop more strategies to stay sober.He said he has met friends through the center and through rehab who are also trying to stay sober. If any of them are having a rough day or are thinking about having a drink, they will call each other and go out for coffee and encourage each other on their journey. It was so beautiful talking to this man. He also said as soon as he went into rehab, he got on Facebook and reached out to his family, and they were all happy he was in rehab. They were super supportive and happy to hear from him. They were willing to help him in any way they could. He was calling his older brother that day to see if they could have coffee together as he works in the city.This man said he gets up each morning and stands on the street he used to sleep on, and he talks with the people who walk by or the homeless on that street. He said he does this for the Lord. He wants to thank God for all He has done for him. He also does it so that he can be an example to those on the street who are still addicted to drugs or alcohol. He can be an example of what can happen when you call out to the Lord. He is living proof that things can change, that help is available when you are ready, and that life can get better.He said he stands on the street for several hours, and then he goes to mass and confession. Then, he will make his way home. He said he is so grateful for his life. He is grateful for God helping him. He is grateful for his apartment, which used to be not that great, but then they started fixing it up, putting rules in place so people can't be drinking in the hallways and such, and they hired security. He feels safe and secure there now. He has contact with his family again. He is so happy, and you can see it just by looking at him. His smile was so big you could see that he was full of the Holy Spirit!Then, as we were talking to him, there was another man that came by. We talked to him for a bit. He didn't seem too interested in talking with us, but he liked talking to the guy we were talking to. The guy that came up to us gave the man we were talking to a pair of brand-new socks. It was nice to see how they cared for each other.After everyone was done with the ministry time, then they all made their way back to the church. They spend a few minutes in the church individually praying. I thanked God for all the encounters that I had that day. I prayed for each one of my new friends. I asked the Lord what was one thing he wanted me to learn from this experience. This is what I felt the Lord told me, “Remember that we can learn just as much from our friends as they can from us. The people you met today are my beautiful children, whom I love dearly. I am doing good work in them, too, but sometimes it takes longer because they are resistant and they are blocking me. That doesn't mean I can't work, but it does sometimes take longer. I will use all they have been through for their own good. Thank you for your prayers for them. You may be the only one praying for them, so don't forget them. I don't want to see a single one of my children perish. I am grateful to you for going out with Encounter today.”After they pray in the church, they go downstairs and eat lunch with their group and debrief about their experience for that day. While we were debriefing, God gave one of the ministers in our group a beautiful gift. When we were talking about the man who went to rehab and was doing so great, one of the women in our group was so happy. She had prayed with this man the night before he went to rehab, and she hadn't seen him since. She had never stopped praying for him and wondering what happened to him. She was overjoyed and so grateful when she heard how well he was doing.The reason I said God gave her a gift is because it is not often that you get to see the fruit of your prayers. Often, it is our job to plant the seed or say the prayer, but we don't get to see the seed bloom or the prayers bear fruit. She had prayed with this man, they had formed a special bond, and to hear the Lord not only saved him from his addiction but saved him from living on the streets and reunited him with his family in some way was amazing. She wanted to go right back out and talk with him, but unfortunately, she wasn't able to. However, I know she will be looking for him the next time she goes out. This provided encouragement for the whole group, too. God is hearing their prayers, their work is not in vain, and they are making a difference. Next, they get in a big circle, and each group talks about one way their life was impacted by the people they met that day. Then, they end with a Thanksgiving Rosary. This is not where they say the rosary. It is where they say one thing they are faithful to on each Hail Mary bead. It was beautiful to hear what everyone was thankful for. I am so grateful I got to be a part of this ministry for a day.The third Saturday is when the whole group of young adults go out and minister. However, several of them go out a couple of times a week in small groups. I know the ladies I have been fortunate enough to spend time with actually live in community with each other so they can help each other grow closer to the Lord, and they also go out a few times a week for ministry. It is amazing to spend time with young adults who are so in love with Christ and who give their time to make sure the homeless have someone to talk to. They do extraordinary work, and if you are a young adult listening to this, reach out to me, and I can tell you how you can get involved. If you are not a young adult and are interested in homeless ministry, I am sure there is something that would fit your needs, too.Thank you very much to all those involved in Encounter Boston for letting me join you and for all the amazing work you are doing. You are making a difference in the lives of all you encounter! www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

 A visit with her mother.by senorlongo. Listen to the ► Podcast at Connected.The score was tied 0-0 at halftime. I waved to Steffi as she walked by into the gym. Her dad and Jeremy left to get some sodas out of their car. I found myself alone with Mrs. Goldwasser, her mother. “I want to thank you for last night, Rob,” she began. “You should know that Steffi and I have few secrets. She told me just about everything when she came in.” She saw the concern on my face and laughed, “No, don't worry. How many eighteen year old girls do you know who haven't had sex? What do you think I did when I was eighteen? I'm Jewish so I obviously wasn't trying to be a nun.“Until last night Steffi had sex with one boy. Now she's had sex with a man. Believe me, she much prefers the man over the boy. I've tried to explain how sex is about giving; both ways. Until last night I don't think she believed me. Now she does, so thank you very much. Don't mention anything to her father. He doesn't know and he acts like she's still ten. One of these days he'll wake up and she'll be engaged.” We talked about other things for a while until Jeremy and his dad returned with a cooler. I was offered a Coke, but I politely refused. However, I did accept an invitation to lunch.I walked down the bleachers to Steffi once the game had ended–a 1-0 loss on a penalty kick. I didn't know much about soccer, but I thought that Steffi had played well, not giving up any kind of advantage to the opposing team. I kissed her cheek and we talked quietly as we walked toward the school. I stopped outside after she told me she would see me after her shower. Her hair was still wet when she returned fifteen minutes later. I took her hand as we walked to my car.I was about to open the door for her when she spun me around and wrapped her arms around my neck. “Did you like the game?”“I liked the way you played, but I would have liked it better if you won.”“That doesn't happen very often; only once this year and we've played five games. This was actually one of our better efforts. Right now I think we should shut up and kiss.” It was hard to argue with that kind of logic. I leaned down slightly and pressed my lips to hers. It was just as sweet as I recalled. We kissed there for several minutes before we broke it, I think because she could hear my stomach growling.We were in the car when I commented that I'd had a very interesting conversation with her mother. “I'm sorry, Rob. I should have told you about our relationship. Mom and I talk about everything. I told her before our date that I thought I'd have sex with you. I knew; don't ask me how; that you'd be different; that you'd take care of me.”“I loved everything we did last night and I want it to happen again. I love making you cum. Watching you squirm around is a real turn-on. Oh; I have to go to a concert tonight. They want me to sing a couple of songs. The rest of the time we'll be in the audience like everyone else. I hope you don't mind.”“Gee; I get to go to a great concert and I get to hear you perform; why would I complain? It sounds great to me. We are going back to your house after, aren't we?”“We're going before, too. I have to dress, but I don't know what we'll be able to do.”“That's okay; I do! Let's just make sure we have enough time. Don't you have to warm up, or something?” I opened the door for her and we drove the short distance to her home. As expected Jeremy was out in the driveway with his basketball. He passed it to me; I dribbled behind my back and between my legs before taking a fifteen-foot jumper that hit nothing but net.“Awesome, Rob; can you teach me to do that?”“Well; I can show you, but it really is nothing more than practice. I used to practice dribbling with my eyes closed. The same thing about shooting with your off hand; it's nothing more than practice; practice; practice. You have to have some ability, but that alone won't cut it.” I passed the ball back to him and walked with Steffi into the house. Her father was already out back working with the grill. For someone whose job required incredible hand-eye coordination he was doing a terrible job. I offered to take over and he willingly walked away, leaving the grilling to me.Having grown up in an apartment I'd had no experience with any kind of grill until this past summer when I used one almost every noon and night until Carla and Joe were hired. I had learned a lot over those six weeks. I sectioned off the bulk chopped chuck with a steak knife and put my hands to work pounding out and shaping a bunch of burgers. Let's see; two for me, one for Steffi, one for her mom; . I made eight thinking that would be plenty. I seasoned them with salt and pepper and started the grill. Steffi brought out some rolls and gave me a kiss in the process. I was cooking away when she reappeared and kissed me again. “Uh; what's your dad going to say? Doesn't he still think of you as a ten year old?”“Unfortunately, he does, but he just went to the store. He'll be back in about ten minutes so I have that long to kiss you and convince you we need to do more later on this afternoon.”“Ha; that won't take much, but let's see you convince me.” She jumped into my arms and rammed her tongue down my throat. Steffi remained in that position for several minutes until I broke away to check the burgers. I had just put the rolls on the grill when her father appeared, explaining that he had forgotten his wallet. It was a close call, but I wasn't worried. I was pretty sure Steffi's mom had things under control and I found it hard to actually believe her father didn't realize that we had kissed a few times.I served the lunch at one o'clock sharp and I must have done a good job because everyone was stuffing themselves, including me. I suggested Steffi get ready because I would have to warm up before dinner. I explained that I always sang for an hour before performing to loosen my vocal cords and to check my pitch. I would have to do it early tonight because I was only a part-time performer and we were going to dinner first. She was ready just after two. I thanked her folks for lunch even though I was the chef. I took her hand and walked her to the car. Forty minutes later we were at my home. I took a few minutes to call the box office and order four tickets for Joe and Carla. I also reminded them that I would need two for Steffi and me. Both sets would be at the “Will Call” office.CHAPTER 4I turned around once I was done to find Steffi naked in the hallway, shaking her hot ass and waving those smooth white globes in my face. She slowly back-pedaled up the stairs, playing with her tits and leading me to the bedroom where I was sure she had some plans for me. I shed my clothes as I followed so all I was wearing were my sandals when I entered the room. She fell back onto the bed as I approached and I made a big show of “falling” onto her. We came together in a tangle of body parts. I kissed her lips before working my way down, kissing her neck, her tits, her belly. I stuck my tongue into her navel. She was obviously ticklish because she jumped up shrieking with laughter. I continued my journey down to her abdomen and my ultimate target. Once there I pulled her on top of me, her tasty cunt just over my chin.Steffi ran her fingernails up and down my shaft, teasing me as my cock jumped in response. I began to eat her delicious cunt; she lowered her head onto my cock, washing it with her tongue as she sucked and bobbed up and down. I attacked her cunt with my mouth, first covering the entire surface with my lips and sucking mightily. This caused her labia to engorge. In seconds they were swollen with her passion. I move in to her core, teasing her tunnel with my tongue. I knew I was getting to her in the same way she was getting to me. Steffi was squirming all over me; I was humping her mouth. I doubted that either of us could do anything to control our movements.I knew I was getting close so I shifted my attentions to her clit. I sucked it between my teeth, nibbling and sucking simultaneously. She came hard and fast, flooding my mouth with her ejaculate. I barely had time to warn her, “Steffi; I'm close.” She paid no heed and took my hefty load into her mouth and throat as a result. She squeezed the last drops from my wilting cock and licked them off with a smile. I could barely move so I pulled her around to me so I could hold and caress her while we recovered. We rose about twenty minutes later and showered. Steffi dressed and combed her hair while I put on my navy blue suit and tied my tie. Once done I went down to my studio to run through some scales. I always taped my practices so I could play them back for review. I was finished by five.We drove into Boston, heading for Faneuil Hall where I had reservations at Durgin-Park, famous for generations for its massive prime rib and seafood. It was an extremely expensive restaurant, but I was being well paid for my work tonight and I could afford to treat Steffi well. She had certainly treated me well over the past two days. We arrived on time for my 5:45 reservation. We dined extremely well and I drove over to Mass Ave. in plenty of time for the concert at Symphony Hall.We were seated on the aisle at a table in row eight and the usher showed me how to get onto the stage when called. My cue occurred when a huge screen was lowered from above the stage. An interview with Andrea Bocelli was played. I kissed Steffi and stepped into the aisle, from there to side of the stage. Bocelli was asked about young talent to replace the aging tenors, many of whom were now retired, and recently deceased Pavarotti. “There are several fine young tenors,” he said, “but the most outstanding comes from right here in the States. I've had the honor and pleasure of performing with him; Rob Kerwood is the outstanding tenor of the future.” The screen was raised to reveal me standing at a microphone center stage.The backup singers began without introduction, “Once you have found her never let her go; once you have found her never let her; .”I jumped in over the last, “go,” and sprang right into “Some Enchanted Evening,” following the rendition made popular by Jay Black and the Americans way back in 1965. I was aware of the first four or five words then I was somewhere else. Autopilot was the best way I could describe it; I was no longer in front of thousands of strangers; I was in my own mind relying on my years of instruction and practice. It was only at the very end of the song that I came back. The song ended and I bowed to the enthusiastic applause. I even heard a few “Bravo's” coming from the audience. I could make out Steffi and I could see she was beaming.I moved easily into my second song, “The Impossible Dream,” without saying a word. Everyone knew the song and it was very well received. It ended to very strong applause. I spoke now for the first time, “I really love this song because I live the impossible dream every day. I grew up in a single parent home, a two-bedroom apartment on the second floor above a busy street and a liquor store. My father took off before I was even born and my mother struggled to get by, often working two or even three jobs. I know of the sacrifices she made to get me to Julliard for lessons every Saturday for almost ten years. For me to be here on this stage is truly the impossible dream.”I went on to introduce my next song, “Every March there is a major singing competition in Dublin in which one and only one song is sung. Last year more than 1500 competed and I'm proud to tell you that I was the winner as I was the prior year. I hope you enjoy this song as much as the judges did. I'll bet that many of you know the beginning of this song, but that few know the ending which is very emotional. I couldn't get through it without crying when I first tried to sing it. Of course; I was only seven at the time.” There was some laughter in the audience and when it ended I took a deep breath and launched “Danny Boy.” My voice was full of emotion as I told the story in song of an old man who sends his only son off to war and prepares him for his return whether the father is alive or dead. It was one of my best ever performances. People leapt out of their seats when I finished and bowed. I turned to acknowledge the orchestra and I was truly astonished to see that they were standing and applauding, too. There were many calls for an encore.Conductor Heath Lockner told the audience of my concert series and asked if I could sing one of the Christmas songs. I suggested “Oh, Holy Night,” but the orchestra wasn't prepared so I decided to sing “a cappella.” I moved away from the microphone. I didn't need it if there was no orchestra behind me. I knew from experience that my voice would easily be heard anywhere in the auditorium. I could hear a pin drop, that's how quiet it was as the song built. I thought this was the most beautiful and by far the most difficult of the Christmas songs. I finished to wild acclaim, thanked Heath and the orchestra and strode off the stage and back to Steffi.It was intermission so everyone was up and about. I was stopped several times for my autograph before I reached her. She jumped into my arms and kissed me. “Oh Rob, you were fantastic; incredible. I can't believe I was actually here for it.” I put my arm around her and walked her up the aisle to where I saw Joe and Carla sitting. They greeted me with huge smiles and introduced me to their daughter and her husband. I could understand why they didn't like him; he came off like a cold fish, devoid of any personality. Worse, he couldn't help but scope out Steffi's body right in front of his wife. We chatted for a minute before I excused us, using thirst as an excuse.We ran into Stan, the business manager, in the lobby. He was ecstatic. They had sold more than 500 tickets to my future concerts during the intermission. He bought us a couple of Cokes and some popcorn. I shook more hands and signed more autographs on our way back to our seats. I took a close look at Steffi once we were seated; I saw total love and lust in her eyes. I was extremely pleased with both. Once the lights were dimmed she pulled my hand to her crotch. It was soaking wet; I was sure her dress was ruined. I looked at her again; she smiled lamely and shrugged her shoulders. “I couldn't help it. I love the way you sing. I didn't tell you, but I had two orgasms in Mrs. Sherman's class. I held her hand and gave her cheek a peck as the concert began again. We enjoyed the music, but, truthfully, there was somewhere else we'd rather be; home in my bed. That's where we were at 11:00 on the dot. I figured that would give us another hour or more of fun before I had to take her home.CHAPTER 5I opened the door and stepped aside for Steffi. She ran past me like she was on the soccer field. If I thought she might be tired I was definitely wrong. She was upstairs with her clothes off before I even made it to the bedroom door. “Eager, aren't we?”“You're damned right; clothes off now!” I almost laughed, but I could see how serious she was and this wasn't a time to start an argument. I folded my jacket over the chair, followed seconds later by my tie, shirt, pants and boxers. My shoes and socks fell quickly to the floor. There was no hiding my excitement; it was standing out perpendicular to my body and it felt as hard as a rock. Steffi reached for my hand and pulled me onto her. Her lips reached up for mine and we met in a sweet delicious kiss. I fell the rest of the way to the bed, savoring the sensation of her perfect smooth skin. Steffi's body was still tan from the summer with only her tits, pubic area, and ass snow white. I wrapped my arms around her, my hands finding the smooth globes of her ass. My fingers ran up and down her ass crack, pausing to tickle her puckered star. Steffi noticed immediately.“Oh! What are you doing back there?”“Just playing with one of the most sensitive parts of your body; did you know there are more nerve endings in your ass than in your cunt? If your cunt had as many as your ass; all you'd want to do is fuck.”Steffi laughed hysterically. “All I want to do now is fuck; you.” She gave me that little girl pout look that they all seem to know so well and is so effective on guys; except me!“Are you trying to tell me something, because I'm having trouble following you.”She gave me an exasperated, “Ah,” and pushed me onto my back. She straddled me and sunk swiftly onto my hard cock. “Do you understand me now? This is what I've wanted all night and I'll want again tomorrow and the day after that and; .”I put my fingers up to her lips. “I really do understand; it's exactly what I want, too. I don't know what I did before I met you, but I know this; I want it to go on and on and on. You're wonderful and you fuck pretty good, too.” She took one look at me and laughed. God, I loved the way she laughed. In fact, I loved an awful lot about her, especially the way she fucked.Steffi began to rock, grinding her clit into me. “Isn't this what they call clock management in basketball? Take a quick shot in the hope you'll get another before the end of the half?”“Huh?”“That's what I'm doing here; working for a fast one so we'll have plenty of time for another before you have to take me home. What a waste of time, taking me home. I should just stay here all night then we could really fuck.”“Maybe, but here's a thought; when I was a kid I wished we could have Christmas every day until my mother explained that having it once a year made it special. Having it every day would make it ordinary. Now, I'm not suggesting that sex with you would ever be ordinary, but there is a limit as to how often we can do it. We need to cultivate other interests, but not now. Oh God; definitely not now!” Thrusting into Steffi, I lifted her from the bed. We were both into it now; desperate to cum, needing to cum as much as we needed to breathe. We drove into each other at a furious pace; I could see the determination on her face and I was pretty sure I had the same expression on mine. This wasn't going to last forever, not at the intensity of our mating. Suddenly, Steffi's expression changed; she was feeling nothing but rapture now. She was only seconds away which was fortunate because I could feel it mounting deep within my groin. I pumped harder; faster; until at last! We erupted together like two volcanoes. Steffi shook with convulsion as my semen poured into her womb. Her eyes were glazed over when she collapsed onto my chest. I checked the clock; 11:13; not bad, we may yet be able to fuck again exactly as she planned.There was no rush now; we lay there together, two lovers in their post-coital bliss. I'd heard that expression before, but until I had met Steffi I thought it nothing more than a myth. Now there was nothing I enjoyed more than snuggling with her at this time. She lifted her head almost a half hour later, a silly grin on her face. I leaned up to kiss her which only served to make her grin bigger and sillier. I was about to ask her about it when she spoke, “I love doing this with you, Rob. It's so satisfying in so many ways. I can't even explain how I feel after you make me cum, except to say that I feel totally at peace. Does that make any sense?”“I think so,” I replied as I pulled her back to me, holding her even tighter than before, if possible. “I feel pretty much the same way, as though there's nothing in the world except you and me. The feeling is so exhilarating, like my whole body is glowing. I know it's awfully early in our relationship, Steffi, but I think I'm falling in love with you. I can't imagine living without you.”“Oh Rob, I feel the same way. I've never known anyone as sweet and loving a

Earlier this month, the owner of the Mass Ave sushi eatery Forty Five Degrees celebrated the restaurant's 16th anniversary. Bill Pritt was told he was crazy in 2008 years ago for trying to create a restaurant at the six-lane intersection of Massachusetts Avenue, College Avenue and St. Clair Street. A smart real estate move during the recession gave him ownership of the retail space on that corner, laying the groundwork for future success. After a three-year stint as president of the board for the not-for-profit Damien Center, Pritt is rededicating his energy to what he loves most—the hospitality industry. Earlier this year, he purchased a parcel at 555 Delaware St. with a former Regions bank branch that Pritt plans to turn into a casual dining spot called Harrison's Restaurant. And in May he purchased the building on Mass Ave that houses the Metro Nightclub and Restaurant, as well the business itself. He isn't planning on changing the longtime institution for gay nightlife as much as he wants to spruce it up and improve operations. This week on the IBJ Podcast, Pritt discusses his early years in the restaurant business, which including working the drive-thru at a Steak 'n Shake and eventually buying the Blu Martini restaurant and nightclub at the age of 27. He also digs into the origin story of Forty Five Degrees and the real estate acquisition—and yogurt shop—that helped him succeed. And he serves up details from his plans for Harrison's Restaurant and the Metro. The IBJ Podcast is brought to you by Taft.

Pat talks to District Attorney Rachel Rollins, who was elected to the Suffolk County (Boston, MA) top law enforcement position on a platform of declination and diversion instead of prosecuting low-level crimes, especially crimes associated with poverty, mental illness, and drug use. In the interview, D.A. Rollins explains her progressive values and her philosophy for reforming the criminal justice system and holding police accountable for uses of force and misconduct. District Attorney Rollins takes bold stances, like her willingness to forgive all convictions that drew on evidence that was processed at the embattled drug lab in Massachusetts. Rollins even took a new bold stance on the TDS Podcast, publicly supporting the idea of beginning the process of creating supervised use facilities in Massachusetts, arguing that the open-air drug market on Mass Ave and Melnea Cass has all the negative consequences of a supervised use facility without any of the public health benefits. Rollins also discusses how some police hide behind the "Blue Wall" of silence when they should come out and condemn actions like the actions Chauvin took that killed George Floyd.

We cover the election and the two ballot questions for Mass. Ice Cube being maga for pay. Bill Burr calling out white women and how they got mad at facts. We talk some more about local politics from the endless conversation about Mass Ave, to the ending mortgage moratorium, and protest at Governor Baker's house.

We changed up our production schedule to bring you updates on the bus rapid transit (BRT) pilot. On Oct. 9, Arlington launched their BRT pilot running from Lake Street to Alewife Brook Parkway along Massachusetts Avenue. As part of the pilot, five bus shelters along Mass. Ave. were decorated by local designers. Why was public art included in the project? What's the inspiration behind the installations? We talked with the designers and local officials to find out.   Have a question? Fill out the survey and your question might get featured on an upcoming episode: https://bit.ly/2qmMGZN
