The Wild Blue

We are resiliant creatures. One day down for the count, the next, up with the clouds. It helps to always be "on to the next thing." Make "big plans," and it all starts to seem like destiny. That is how our Edinburgh trip is shaping up. The wheels are in motion, the thought, the dream, begins to materialize, and your life seems to take on a genuine forward thrust, with a trajectory, a definite purpose; even if it basically means just paying attention to the next necessary task.

The "big step" in the wild blue unknown, consists of little incremental movements on the path. It is a "pilgrim's progress," pointing to questions and answers that you didn't even know existed. We are discovering things about the world and ourselves and these little "discoveries," are the nuggets of gold, the gemstones that can transform a life, a world. Of course, we can't hold onto anything. It all passes through us, as we pass through it...this is the strange, contradictory experience of our existence.
