I am the mountain and the mountain is me.
There's norhing quite like visiting a volcano (one that isn't erupting/exploding) to calm you down.
I headed to St. Helen's today. The conversation with one of my besties "B" involved discussions of balance, and me waxing poetic about my own pendulum swing between yin and yang. Lemme just tell you....(for me) going to the site of a catastrophic ( Read more... ) -

I feel so many things right now, a bit lost mostly, and I'm trying to make sense of what exactly I feel and how I'm feeling it.

Oops!

I haven't posted in a million years...
Or so it would seem. Been busy with golf lessons and getting ready for the swim leg of the Danskin women's triathlon (doing it as a relay with other women from my office). I'm tired! And I have no room to complain because I chose to be this active and I am really having fun. I can't wait to sleep this weekend!!!! -
