Susan & Martijn woven photo portrait
- D. Sippel
Two steps forward, one back. Time has a new quality, difficult to define.
I work at ‘discovering’ the life that is ‘waiting’ for me.
The year has been the best of times, the worst of times -
I struggle to find my identity, my sense of place.
Always mindful of my many blessings, family, friends and friendship,
I come to understand for the first time the ‘true’ meaning of process.
It has been a year of outward and inward journey.
Soul Lodging: A Magical Mystery Tour
Awareness - the first step toward healing. Awareness of how encircled I am. Grateful for continued contact with dear ex-hubby Bob Ingram, for renewed relations with brother Allen Schaefer, for the love and support of countless friends, colleagues and family.
Now I seek ‘soul lodging’. So thoroughly entwined was I within my marriage nest, bathed in belonging - all else seemed safe. I adored and was beloved. Martijn was my life’s witness.
I am unsettled. My quest now - to locate a new settled sense of soul. The half regenerated. The soul having been unraveled, untwined by the uncoupling.
Family, friends, colleagues weave around me a warp and weft - a thick, soft protective cocoon: The remaining toil is a solitary assignment.
Unsettled. I now craft a new consciousness awash in the gratitude of your countless contributions.
Happy Healthy Prosperous Sane New Year.
