In July of last year a dear friend of mine decided to follow her bliss. Her vision. Her desire in life.

in time
Years can be such slippery intangible things, as we slide from one to the next. Season to season. Walking through our lives noticing so little of what the last year has held and what the coming years will bring. Except hair wet with rain in Spring. Skin glistening with sweat in Summer. Crunching leaves beneath … Continue reading in time

Swimming in slow motion while the cool green grass presses … Continue reading sun warmed

I'm overwhelmed. There. I said it. I am. I never expected this to be simple. I never expected it to be easy. Things are difficult. Tense. Uneasy. Unstable. And yes. Overwhelming. And the list of things a that needs to get done is long and getting longer. I'm knocking one of those tasks off today, … Continue reading help wanted
