LIFE...A Work in Progress


The time has come, once again, to forsake my comfort zone...

To leave the safety & stagnation of my little pocket of existence & reengage with the world in a much broader sense.

It is always amazing to me just how quickly one can fall asleep within one's own life. The daily routine becomes a day-a week-a year and so on.

I have always been a person of adventure...of escapade...and somehow or another I have become frozen. I am alive but not living...

I've given most of my attention to the diagnosis & treatment of a fractured vertebra over the last few years. (bodies can REALLY be a hassle!!?!) Now that I have been 'fixed' with titanium rods and screws I am finding myself beginning the slow prickly process of remembering my passions...silently smoldering deep within. The New Year has me feeling the annual need to reevaluate...
Up until a couple of years ago I had always kept a journal in book form (binder paper...napkins...) and as much as I love the tactile quality of pen on paper I have decided to send my thoughts out into the cyberspace unknown. (Oh, how I miss the fine art of Letter Writing. RIP Snail Mail...)
Within the confines of a bound journal my musings have always felt safe...private...I don't want to sacrifice my honesty or censor myself too much knowing that I am laying myself publicly bare. (so please bear with the occasional morose post!!)
Here we go...
Hold on tight...
(and Happy New Year!)
