Great, kinda stunning issue. I’m going to write about it as well.

It sounds like you have given this long thought. It is interesting as I read this to put our last conversation in perspective where you were super enthusiatic about going back for your masters. I think you are very talented and there are a great many things you could do and not only be great at but also be a great contributor to others. But ultimately, it is about where you feel your passion and what you want to do.

Let’s make time to see each other–I wish you the best on your journey of discovery but I will miss you! i know for now it is 3 months but you never know where life goes.

I definitely share your feelings about finding a place to belong (although I don’t have my own Congo to return to)–I can’t say I feel like I fit in very well in LA either and I will be a woman w/o a home my whole life, finding home where i am at.

Hey! I took that picture of the mailboxes!
And you’ve made my day with the new knowledge that, 8 years ago, I in a small way contributed to making someone else’s day with something I created! (because, as you know, I’m not the creative type that you and beth are :).
The pic was taken near the Brookdale Lodge. Place of weirdness.

Glad to see you’re writing again – thanks for sharing your very singular view on the world. You have a way of LIVING the mindfulness that I and so many others fail to keep our resolve.

That’s the spirit, you have no reason to look down. Chin up and keep it that way.

The nature of the natural world: certain things are made to be moving, and certain things are not. I suppose people are. We all move, I’m no where near by birth place, neither are you. And I suppose things like cattle or poultry aren’t, at least not anymore, they tend to worth more dead than alive.

So, move on, my dear. We’ve all gone across a few oceans so far, why stop now? And godspeed!

Why…that’s exactly what I loved most about that moment. I am so glad you said that. You really put your finger on it. It was a moment of getting it, perfectly right…thanks love!

Noice, eh? Great when you just get something so completely right with NO information to guide you – serendipity….

That, my friend is the key point: maneuverability. I had a friend who always said, in order to change directions you have to be in motion. You can’t change directions when you’re at a standstill. But I like your idea of standstill being an illusion, which it is, in a way. Even if you’re not moving, your cells are, your body is, in a way, aging, so not everything stays the same, ever, in the natural world.
