working, watering, blooming
Rio Grande Gorge (outside Taos, NM)
I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.
- Clarissa Pinkola Estés
I'm in that re-entry phase when you've been away and you've returned and it is the same and different all at once. I'm writing. I'm letting life in and working with the stories. I'm watering them as I put words on the page. I'm creating space for that bursting and blooming. And I'm resting, breathing, and just being right here with a little four year old who needs time with me just as I need time with her.
You? How are you over there?
