It’s been several months since I last blogged. Like so many things in life that are good for us, when we stop doing them, the energy to start back up seems insurmountable.
It was a comment from a fellow meditator on the Insight Timer meditation App (https://insighttimer.com/). He stated that he liked reading my thoughts and the journey within. Since I enjoy writing about my thoughts and the journey within, I came back.
The poet Naomi Shihab Nye writes beautifully about what to say when you’ve been out of touch. How do we catch up? In an extract from her poem, The Art of Disappearing, https://gatheringbooks.org/2013/07/19/poetry-friday-the-art-of-disappearing/, she writes:
When someone you haven't seen in ten years
appears at the door,
don't start singing him all your new songs.
You will never catch up.
And so, dear readers of my blog, I’ll be sharing my journey of transition and I hope you will ride along with me.
