I should be in bed right now. But instead I'm listening to Pandora (thanks to Vesper), drinking a warm cup of chai (thanks to Sophie), and celebrating the fact that I have finally entered my first story in a very long time.
I've been traveling the pages of my old India journals, piecing together memories, reconstructing a self from a not-so-distant past, and feeling much more alive and real than I have in quite some time.
Funny how writing has a way of doing that.

hgus!
this is wonderful! so glad you spent some time in your story and writing. sooooo goooood!
blessings to you (we have snow today and i thought of you and how excited you were for the first snow of the year!)
Lovely news to hear you're writing stories again - and great illustration.
Yeah Jessie, don't you love it when that happens? It's like reliving experiences all over again, but in the mind.
Like I've climbed to the top of a Myan pyramid. There at the top, my arms open wide and spinning around, what a sight. There I was thousands of miles and one right turn from home. Looking from the top to the ground, promising myself, I'd come back some day. And what I love the most is I can do that each and everyday. All I have to do is look into my written words and my memories make everything come alive. How exciting India must have been for you.
one of the things i look forward to most is going to india. i'm glad you like pandora so much! i adore it!!!
pandora is the best thang that's happened to me since sliced bread. What stations did you make for yourself?
