Star Dust
Geee. It has been awhile. I wake up and find time has escaped me again. As I walked through the Art Museum (which is what everyone should do), I asked myself why I haven’t been writing on Xanga. Problem identified: I have a really good listener for a boyfriend.
Not that I am complaining.
It is a wonderful thing. It just used to be that my cup of “I HAVE TO SHARE THIS!” only got emptied when I could write, I could post, I could get the word out there (even the illusion of doing that) in some way. Now there is a human being who likes to hear–even asks me about these things. And I tell him. And my cup is filled.
I remember in the not-so-long-ago past how I grunted and groaned over this. The missing millions of blogs ththe at dried up as soon as relationships bloomed. I promised myself to never be in that group. And don’t worry. I will still have spirts. I will still write. I just think some of the urgency is gone. And now, most of my writing has turned into that big M word: Ministry. This is an amazing, wonderful transition time in my life. I just have to get used to it and find balance. Thanks for bearing with me.
I am going back to Brazil in less than a month. In that time, I have a list that will never be completed of things to do and see and say. And I am ok with that. Because I a spending time with the people who matter. I am turning off the computer when my nephew comes over, and he rewards me with being squeezable. It is good.
