Wow, it's been a month since I last posted. Lots going on with a new job, trying to get up to speed and balance a life that was very calm with one that's much busier now. Quite a contrast. Plus my 50th birthday over Labor Day weekend! My new job requires me to be at my computer most of the day, so typing even more for this blog is not as appealing as it once was. But my friend Jeannette, whose blog ReinventedVoices is a must-visit for excellent, thoughtful writing, has kindly said she misses my essays. I complained to her about just not feeling like writing out my whirling dervish-like mind full of thoughts, but I also just realized how important it can be to get things written down. It's a healing process, this writing, but I suppose sometimes I write only when I am ready to take the next step in healing.
So here's the latest thoughts, which have been a burr under my saddle for a long time but are now finding expression. And to quote Ziggy, or some pundit from an earlier time,
You can complain that roses have thorns, or you can rejoice that thorns come with roses.
