And So It Is

Yesterday was interesting. I took the day off of work. I know myself and my emotional tollerance well enough that the notion of facing the general public wasn't a good idea. So, I spent the day home, alone with my thoughts, with my occasional tears. I let it all come as I said goodbye to a year that I never expected to have to walk through. I talked to Timothy last night. He said, "We did it. We're still hanging in there." I said, "T, we're more than hanging - we are standing! And we're keeping the promises we made."

I want to take a few electrons here to thank all of you who've stood by me this past year, all of you who've so patiently watched the metamorphosis, my dear readers, my virtual pals, friends and family. Please know that I would not have made it this far, this well, without you or your love and support.

As for me, I will continue to challenge myself to become. Whatever it is that's waiting for me, I stand wide open to it. I will keep writing, creating, making music, laughing, sassing, walking, losing weight, drinking bean, searching the tapestry for stray threads, looking for another soul to call "my mate", working, playing... I'm alive. So alive. Let the Universe take me where it will.

And so it is...
