When I started this blog my posts were memories and recounts of my travels. Over the past year I have stayed in place. Next week we will be celebrating the marriage of my niece, in person, on the west coast.
Even though I have not left home I have still traveled. I have gone from full time to part time work, a liberating experience. I have explored my thoughts and desires, a result of the private time afforded us by the pandemic. I have come through this life experience, as I have with others before it, wiser, gaining wisdom though both trial and joy.
There will continue to be lingering effects. Many are people and families are physically, emotionally and financially stressed. Others are searching for a new path, the one that they had been traveling disrupted, as was mine. Physical signs of what we have been through remain. Masks are still worn in some settings, social distancing still in place in others.
Post pandemic we will move to a new normal. One we each will need to explore, experience and find our individual place in.
off we go into a future of ? type - as always.
