#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

Path to Playa Palada

And so it goes. Awake at 5:00. I work on proofing my manuscript, send it off. We are all out the door by 6:15. Our group grows, we hike downhill, yes, the beach is there in sun waiting for our arrival. Walk to the tide pool. A swim. And then I must head back right away for my Ukrainian support group. I make it with a couple of minutes to spare. It was certainly worth returning to—I am always so glad to spend this time weekly with my Ukrainian friends. In the afternoon, Frank and I have a session with the Family Constellations therapist online. It’s fascinating and meaningful and moving. Mysterious and satisfying. Every day here brings an opportunity for deep and heartfelt conversation. I have never felt more alive.
