04/30/01 - Get Back, Get Back, Get Back To Where You Once Belonged. My flexibility has been tested, and I am OK. I like my normal schedule, that I know now having spent a week with an abnormal one. I just sort of rolled with the punches and ... I survived. And geez, I got a nice long weekend out of the deal, a wonderful one at that. I'm not even going to try to catch up ... just carry on.

"Thanks for being around." Those were words spoken to me by a stranger this morning. I can't say that I did anything extraordinary for this person, In fact, he did more for me than I for him. Those few words made me feel very good. I feel very thankful for those that be around me.

I had a chance to visit a favorite place of mine this weekend, Sebastapool. I've been there a few times before. It's country. It's near Bodega Bay, and not too far from the Russian River. I would love to live there someday, would love to make it part of my dream. It's far away from the City, and the weather gets nice and hot. I'm probably just thinking frivolous thoughts here. It's not here and now. But, the moments spent there have certainly helped my attitude in the here and now. I know you are supposed to have your dreams and then work towards them, but somehow I seem to just stumble into mine. I don't really know what I have to work with.

There are so many possibilities and they come in so many different shapes and varieties. Can you really choose your favorite rose? Is it necessary to do so? I choose to take it all in. I may miss something if I limit myself. I may miss the beauty of the simple, the quiet.

See, I am relaxed.
