lately i've been feeling breakable.
there are things that i've seen and felt and known about for years, that all of a sudden make me cry.
there are things that i've suddenly learned about, and that the knowledge of has changed me, and how i look at lots of things.
there are things that i always hoped would never be, that are, and that now are among the things that need to be addressed in order to move on.
i can't even say that any of these things are necessarily bad things, or uncomplicated good things, but only that they are things that are now a part of the landscape that i walk through on a daily basis.

and it needs be said that none of these things are things.

all of these things are people.

people i love.

going off to tuck some of these people in. thanks for reading.

oh how strange it is to be tuned into someone i've never actually met....this post is perfect and true and communal even if it wasn't meant to be. i love the part about "not neccisarily bad things, or uncomplicated good things...etc.." (you wrote it, so you know). thinking about moving back...to our home...and our friends...and our family...and snow...people are really important, aren't they?

thanks for writing,
beth

Your post made me think of the song "I saw what I saw" by Sara Groves. Such a great song! Check it out on youtube. Blessings to you!

My experience is that the very same challenges that feel so heavy one day can also feel quite light other days. Maybe it's the tough times that show us how really good the good times are. Or maybe I'm rambling... Here's wishing you many of those lighter days.
