DECEMBER and AFTER
There are some things I can write about now that I once thought I'd never be able to, stories of loss and learning and growth and my own failures and successes. But, there remains one I cannot give words to and until I can, I am going to be taking a break from this online world. My whole life has shifted--high tide and hailstorms ever since September, but I am still navigating myself through the harsh currents. I don't pretend I have great skill with it, in fact, I am standing knee-deep in mistakes and bailing like hell to keep it all afloat. But, isn't that just a part of the journey sometimes? The horizon is still there--as steady as ever, and so is my impulse to keep rowing until I reach safe harbor. I'll be sure to drop a little note in a bottle on the sea--just as soon as I do.
Love,
D.

I wish you safe sailing and trust absolutely that when you find your way to shore it will be with strength and wisdom on your side.

it's been a pleasure seeing your december, i look forward to your message in a bottle.
love to you :)
oh beautiful dear one....you will be in my thoughts and heart...until we hear from you again.
Hope you don't ever get so tired of rowing that you stop-your tenacity is amazing and inspiring. Keep rowing.
in the middle of a painful, turbulent time myself...this post was comforting in some way.

Hope you're able to enjoy the holidays. Miss you.
sometimes taking a break to breathe is the only way. take your time navigating the waters and we will be awaiting your message.
Thinking of you in your hailstorms. When you're ready and if it's right, maybe you will write your story--or maybe you will just decide to hold it close.
Peace and love to you in the new year.

I've been a very sporadic visitor, and less frequent commenter on many blogs over the past months, so missed this word. I hope the turmoil is easing, that the new year is bringing new possibilities, and that you will be well in every way possible. Blessings to you.

You are such a beautiful writer...I'll miss your words, and hope that you find peace and come back to us soon.

I am new to your blog, but just have to say that although your journey likely has nothing in common with my own - I can relate in a very real way to what you wrote.
