Dandelion Break

I have to take a break.

I keep hearing two things over and over in my head - I've barely slept at all in a week.

...Tinnitus at its worse...

"Mommy, help me, Mommy! Help me! Mo! Mo! (gasping) Mommy!"

a dandelion
The other thing is..."You missed that exit a long time ago and you are on the road to nowhere now."

Be well and always dream big.

The greatest thing about dandelions is blowing the fluff away. ALWAYS blow the fluff away. :)

I hope you have a calm, productive break--sounds like it is time for some grounding and contemplation. You will be missed. I am just getting to know you. Hope you won't be gone too long. :)

I can totally relate to the tinnitus! I have that darn ringing in my ears all the time, too. And sometimes it seems like the volume is turned up till it gets hard to think! Arg! I pray you will have some relief--some quieter constant, relentless company--so that it fades into the background of your mind--hehe! :):) Bless you!

Good that you are taking a break!
I hope you have found sleep and dreams again.

You said..
"You missed that exit a long time ago and you are on the road to nowhere now."

I say.."the road continues with many more exits, overpasses, detours, etc! A lot of us are traveling it with you..and you add magic to the trip!"
You also said going through the boxes was emotional...and how could it not be? What I see are empty boxes yet to be filled, and we are privileged to see and experience some of the contents.

Go into nature and the silence there..you know it renews your spirit and reminds you of why you love life.
We'll all be here, within sight of the rest stop. :)

Healing energies and peace of heart to you, dear Iggy.
