Thank you Dave
for the picture.

It was a big blog last night. For me.
- about who I am
- at the moment in time
- the NOW
- self revelation
- L5
- journey
............ and as you know
it is all about the journey not the destination
Seek the Shalom ...........
The means is the ends .............

Dana my Canadian/L5.Blogger/dreamer/humanlovingfriend sent me this quote::
"The time is ripe for looking back over the day,
the week, the year,
and trying to figure out where we have come from
and where we are going to,
for sifting through the things we have done
and the things we have left undone for a clue to who we are and who,
for better or worse, we are becoming.
But again and again we avoid the long thoughts….
We cling to the present out of wariness of the past.
And why not, after all?
We get confused.
We need such escape as we can find.
But there is a deeper need yet,
I think, and that is the need—not all the time, surely,
but from time to time—to enter that still room within us all
where the past lives on as a part of the present,
where the dead are alive again,
where we are most alive ourselves to turnings
and to where our journeys have brought us.
The name of the room is Remember—
the room where with patience,
with charity, with quietness of heart,
we remember consciously to remember the lives we have lived."

Frederick Buechner.

Stinking wow.
I have never read Buechner but keep bumping into his quotes - I must mix with the right sort of humans!

So there is a home on the horizon!
The dates are a challenge.
Last Friday there dates were great -
now the 'get-in' means decisions have to be made.
Stink.

I need to sleep on it all.
And I am a bit fed up of the home clearance business.

That last line reminds me of HALT.
Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired.
Which one of these is happening
when you feel at your worst?

My answer is TIRED right now.
I need a refreshing sleep.

And I wonder which word, of the four, is reality for you right NOW?

Whatever - you are beautiful ...............
