Welcome

I love the feeling of stepping into a new place; looking around while trying to get a sense of the rhythm and patterns of the people surrounding me. Finding out how to fit into the flow seamlessly is a real thrill. I love the potential of an empty page, one that I can fill with words or color or mindless doodles.

Seamlessly fitting into the flow carries the same feeling through all facets of life: love, family, work,  running, writing, painting.  It's the feeling of being in the zone, when we're not experiencing everything only through our brain, but when the whole of our being works in league with the world around us.  The body moves in exact and perfect coordination, and we're surprised to acknowledge that we have been able to accomplish so much more in so little time because  we've been carried beyond our doubts and worries, beyond  limitation and what we think the brain knows.

This is where I take a deep breath, trying to breathe in that feeling, that consciousness.  The mood instantly lifts just thinking about our potential - how much we can accomplish if we just let go a little bit. 

This is the beginning of a journey, sometimes serious often frivolous, and I'm so elated to let it begin.
