there and back
brooklyn . august 2011
last night, i returned home from a quick, soul.full trip to brooklyn. i tucked so much inside the pocket of my heart while i was there, and i am sifting through the beauty and realness a bit at a time in between the moments of living that being home brings.
more soon...
until then, i would really love to know how things are in your corner of the world.

Love that you are back with your family... Missed you!
I've been taking some quiet time to remember my mother with love. She passed away two years ago yesterday.
My hometown, Brooklyn. Looks like you may have been in Park Slope...I'd love to hear more about your adventures!
Hope the New Yorkers were good to you! Things are winding down here in Northern NJ for me as the weekend approaches. Looking forward to a restorative, candlelit yoga practice tomorrow night w/some girlfriends. Hoping for at least one day by the pool this weekend. I just ordered a custom soul mantra necklace from you! :) I'm sure it will be beautiful, just like you.
i am a teacher and the school year started off with a bang almost two weeks ago. i have been witnessing the huge transition parents and children go through at the beginning of the kindergarten year - tearful goodbyes, learning how to open a milk carton, the joy of being able to sing newly learned songs with your friends at recess, the energy it takes to get through the day. i feel privileged and then exhausted each evening but ready to do it again with enthusiasm the next morning.
oh what a gift you gave yourself - spending time in brooklyn does the heart good! here...well it's summertime and the kids are curled at my ankles.
love to you and i hope we get to see one another soon.
xoxo
I love New York and I have always wanted to go to Brooklyn. Can't wait to hear about it from your beautiful perspective.
