A diary of my life and a place to show some of my art and photos. No - I don't really expect the universe to give me advice like dear abby or dear prudence. That would really freak me out. I just want a place to keep track. The brain just isn't a very good place to do that.
I was an explorer not long ago, babbling happily and flowing free. Now I’m bound to this melancholic scene trapped with brutality. The river runs before me, heading to the sea. I crave to mingle within it depths, and journey on out to the deep ocean. But, I dangle from a rocky precipice, silent and hopeless and frozen. The sun is shining hotly, still I‘m not in motion.
Shoshone Falls February 25, 2006
Rainbows and waterfalls torture me pounding and glowing with all their might. Oh! Do they know how I long to be with them and laughing in the sunlight? But I must wait for my turn, my freedom is in sight.
Potholes of Shoshone Falls, Feb 25, 2006 The water I’m watching with such yearning was once as frozen and tortured as I. Now it has the freedom to frolic and play and make rainbows that dance in the sky. Soon I’ll get to join them, when time has passed me by.

Shoshone Falls February 25, 2006
Ice falls watching the Snake River flow to the sea.
I will again be an explorer, flowing free, no longer frozen, playing happily in the light that comes from the sun so high.
I am at the beginning of a new journey. At 46, I am a single mother of two wonderful young adults who have conquered overwhelming odds to become the wonderful people they are. But I did it! They are living their own lives now, and are having children of their own! Now I'm looking forward to discovering where my life will take me.
I will use this blog to track my progress, vent, and keep track of where I want to go. Who knows? I may actually get there someday.
