I get the sense of things shifting to a different level or a different way of holding the familiar. Am I wrong to think this might be the advent of something refreshed and rearranged and more integrated?<br /><br />I love this idea that before a change comes a period (not THAT kind of period), comes a TIME, of disequilibrium.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254503312795252536.post-40455736352771281792013-06-11T19:09:56.095+02:002013-06-11T19:09:56.095+02:00yes Julie, all that energy spent on trying to fit ...yes Julie, all that energy spent on trying to fit in, or answer to an image our parents conjured up of us......anyway no one is to blame, I'm not pointing fingers or anything like that, I claim my life for me, the ups and downs and all the in-betweens.<br />In the clear, unbiased moments there is indeed an incredible lightness to it all, the weightlessness of effortless breathing and being.

And I am wondering why. Is it age? Is it lack of energy (not as much gets done over here)? Is it this season of loss and turmoil I seem to be in? <br />I don't know.<br /><br />And when you say that you are & are not 'cyclic'...this makes me think. Is that part of it, that I am not cyclic? I don't know that either and that is ok...because I can let it go.<br />It's ok not to know...to just keep going however one does.<br /><br />I've rambled here, because this floaty thing keeps me somewhat unfocused.<br />I'm glad you posted this. You've made me think and feel less alone.<br />Thanks.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17185798765137874091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254503312795252536.post-16276741715261873622013-06-07T02:07:07.125+02:002013-06-07T02:07:07.125+02:00i can't get a sense of your
