Hmmmm

Okay, I'm fatigued. I've been alone here for two nights and that means I don't have any sense about bed time. Yesterday I went into some sort of coma-like trance while lounging on a queen-size float in the pool. The only things that woke me up were the blazing sun when the clouds parted, and the stiff gusts of wind that shook leaves off the trees.

But I have been pondering family, and location, and responsibility, and purpose. And getting nowhere, I might add. Recent events such as clearing out my mother's house have left me dazed and confused. I want to cut and run. I want to take off this cloak of my life and put on another one, a cleaner one, a more peaceful one.

Then again, it's quite peaceful now. Earlier today, during the downpour that caused widespread flooding, I noticed that the hummingbirds were still at the feeders, undeterred. Hmmmm. I suppose that's a sign, or a teaching. Dayum.
