Endurance

It is not easy living with pain. Many of us find ways to go on when we would rather just stop and hope someone will take care of us. It is not something I indulge myself in very often. It is most apparent on days when the pain lessens so much that I am filled with energy and find myself accomplishing so many things that were left undone. I am so thankful for my life, but there are days that I do wish for a break form the nerves that speak so loud.

Long time gone

How can six months have gone by? It is as if I was typing in my last entry a couple of weeks ago. Time is this strange thing that moves without us marking it or rather the earth revolves and the the moon spins around us and these things seem to create something we call time. Maybe it would be better served if we called it "life." Life is what moves though these exchanges of light and dark, seasons and experiences. The rich interaction of people and the evening light as it glows on the upper edges of the last thunder clouds as they rest over the distant mountains. The last six months have been overflowing with living fully with family and teaching and creating in the studio. Not so much writing, I have missed that, so here I am pecking out a few lines at the end of a Friday. It is good to be back.
