The summer has gone by so quickly. I've been reminded how much life can change in a single blink of an eye. In late May, I lost a dear friend and colleague to a scuba diving accident. The blow to my soul cannot be described. I've tried. All the clichés come to mind: "She was doing what she loved"; "She went quickly"; etc. She lived life fully and didn't dwell on the negative for long. She inspired all she encountered. She'll be missed.
As life carried on around me, 7 weeks later I was laid off from my company after 24 years. A huge blow but as I examined my feelings about it, not as big a blow as I thought it would be. What does that mean for me now? Well, I'm taking time to take a few deep breathes and meditate on my next steps. I am certain that creating and teaching will be front and center in my world. The path that will take is another thing though. That is what I will be pondering in the next few weeks or months.
As my friend would say, move through it, take a deep breath and be open to all options. Deborah, I will!
Stay tuned, as I will be sharing the journey, the creativity, and the stages of my next adventures.
