Although I’m here and I’m in that “away” place most of us are constantly ready to be, I have not forgotten (or maybe it’s I have not wanted to forget) the rest of life. I know what’s waiting for me at home, how daunting it is, how scary it is, how good it is, and somehow I’m able to appreciate where I am even more.
And I guess because life is there and it’s waiting and it never really goes away, I don’t have that escape-from-reality feeling. It is all reality.
I appreciate it more than ever before.

Beautiful picture.
I’m waiting for you to write that you are staying at St. John forever – I’ll visit if you do.
Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet!
It’s the rest of life that really makes us appreciate the splendor! Enjoy!
How could you NOT appreciate that? Gorgeous.
Nice. Very nice.
