Here we are.  Winding down our little break away from Ohio.  Being in this part of the world….was indeed…. a nice break from the cold of winter.

And….. this is always a pretty low-key place to visit.  There is a lot of lying around and not doing much of anything.  Unfortunately, this can be difficult for me.  I am a Type A individual.  Maybe AAA.  I like to stay busy.

Yet … the last two days have flown by.  I think it is because the weather has been so crappy, and we pretty much had to stay indoors.   So I got a lot of work done.

A lot of my friends down here seem to be easier with it.  With the whole relaxing thing.

I was working pretty hard on my meditation about 7 or 8 months ago.  And then it fell off.  Now… I sit down to be with it… and my mind is a busy bee.  I’ve always been a little that way.  A little busy in my head.

However, one thing that slows me down is when I am drawing or photographing something.  My mind goes away… and I lose all sense of things around me.  The world becomes very small…. and very large… at the same time.  It is a wonderful feeling to be there.

And maybe that is where I need to be.  Maybe that is my call for life, somehow.   Where my spirit feels the most at home.  Where my spirit can run free.  And…. both at the same time.
