"journeys, like artists, are born and not made. a thousand differing circumstances contribute to them, few of them willed or determined by the will - whatever we may think" - Lawrence Durrell beginnings are the hardest. i'm not certain if i mean in writing or in life, or both. i suppose i'm not very adept at endings either. the past three years have been fraught with unique challenges. i always assumed the bulk of the work was done in my grieving, but i believe i was mistaken. the reality is the work has just begun: the rebuilding, the piecing together, the rediscovery and remolding. in the coming months there will be a careful tending on tiny seeds, creating a space where growth can happen. of course i am excited, if not a bit scared. i doubt this needs elucidating but i am a bit of a control freak. i have a problem in letting go, my credo is less laissez-faire and more comme il faut. i am curious to see what beginnings have yet to be written |
