The next stage....

Back from the river...the orientation...and then the river again. As each day passes, the concept of me stepping outside of my bubble becomes more apparent. Good times with the family on the river this weekend made me realize once again how lucky I actually am. I also drove up to the capital of Oregon....Salem...for an orientation to this Italia program yesterday. It made this experience even more real....talking to others just as unsure as myself. The skin is shedding, no matter how unwilling I am at times to let it go.The sound of the river flowing reminded me that life is about change...growth... transformation...and authenticity. I am one lucky woman to have so many people to support this molting I am experiencing....this molting that will make me someone different to my loved ones when I return. This is my epiphany for the weekend. I am ready now for this change....finally!
