Isn't it amazing how one question can make us question our entire destiny? I am grateful that you had that window seat to assure you that you were on the right path.
Yet when we are hurting our perspective narrows and sometimes seems to almost fall in on itself. When we can't see past the thing, whatever that pain is, the wide world folds in more and more leaving us with a peephole for a view. Your work is a great reminder that a broader horizon is what we may need to shift out of that painful place.
Love your work, thank you so much for sharing your gift.
Gosh, I love this. Makes me think of how perspective and horizons shift our nervous system towards calm and connection and wisdom. So evocative, thank you :)
Best yet! And not even for the drawings, which are great, but for the imagery in the words. Whenever I fly out of Seattle my eyes are glued to the window to see the volcanoes: Rainier and the others--Baker, Glacier Peak, Adams, Mt. St. Helens, or Hood--depending on which direction I’m going. I’ve climbed them all except for Hood and I can’t get enough of seeing them from the air.

"not something to be questioned away"
(which makes me rethink the role of questions in conversation)
"sometimes it comes with time / And sometimes it comes with distance"
(which is a comfort. and wise.)
Loved this. Beautiful.
Lovely <3 Thank you for the reminder

Finding that perspective can be very difficult. Lovely thoughts!
Your posts are taking us to another world. It is outstanding and very unique.
As you said Candace, the world goes on and on.
