In Between
I’m a day late in writing this week. I had scheduled posts for the two weeks I was away (Thanks for reading and subscribing!!!) but neglected to realize I’d be DEAD TIRED two days after returning and should’ve scheduled a third. Ah well. Live and learn (always). So here I am, a day late. I still consider it a victory toward my goal of posting once a week (preferably Mondays).
I must admit it’s a bit hard to find words this week. On Saturday we returned to the US after two weeks in Europe. Two weeks away from the fear and the turmoil and the politics. Two weeks away from the scary and the unknown. This is completely ironic considering we were in foreign lands. We legitimately were in the unknown and yet it felt safer, less anxiety ridden, less turbulent. We put our trust into the goodness of people. In the US that’s hard to do these days, because a good portion of the population has lost its goodness and the rest of us are so stressed, anxious, and terrified that our goodness is harder to connect to. But it is there. That’s hopeful.
