The Delay Effect
At some point, all of the efforts that I have put into recovery have got to show as catch up to me.

Unpacking
It becomes even more clear to me why I have made the difficult decisions that I have made my life.
It haa not only been to ensure my survival, but to do so with integrity.
(Takin’ Care Of Business – Bachman-Turner Overdrive)

Priming
I am trying to upgrade the quality of my life’s experience.
Family
My ideal model in-process is one where we lift each other up, encourage individual and collective positive growth and expansion, and no longer ascribe to old paradigms taught to us that insisted we must hold each other down to gain “control’s” advantages.

Self- Empowerment
“Rage, rage – go not quietly into that night!”
And I shall conjure such energy to fuel my own massive transformation!!
Quote modified from Dylan Thomas.
So Weird
I knew it could get rough come this Spring term – for that is the nature of resistance when one must divert from established explorations.
But to experience such polar oppositions between which I’m trusting intuition as it guides me to places I’ve never known of before seems unprecedented!
Compliment
The dentist was very kind to say that my teeth are the perfect opacity.
Where The Heart Grows
A blend of worlds is best at times, dreaming I was returning home along missed seaside.
It was a similar place with sweet sun-salt air, lightly misting low contour-peaked landmarks guarding lazy coves along a gently winding freeway.
I was so happy to be enacting our decision to return with newfound assurances that we would thrive because I could market myself well in a community-based vital economy, and there were great options for comfy housing.
With Or Without
Degrees and certifications only point to source of true self.
