Dear Friends,
Since our treacherous Mother Nature has decided to ditch Spring and go back to Winter, I decided to make a big batch of vegetable soup, with cheese, bacon bits and freshly fried seasoned croutons! I know, the irony is unbearable!
Although, unlike last weekend, this one is shaping up to be a couple of quiet days, I'm glad I've returned to my comfort zone; granddaughters, chick flicks, exercise and philosophizing!
My brief experience as an "Older Woman" was not without insight. Borrowing the title of a play by Bekah Brunstetter, I realized, Nothing is the End of the World (except the end of the world). Boundaries, conventions, insecurities — are all meant to be dismantled.
What I have to do now, is to allow myself to venture outside of my box, every so often. If not to amuse myself, at least to find out how others live. Accepted and filed! What have you accepted and filed today?
