Yesterday I called a dear friend of mine on the phone. We discussed the recent turn of events: our friend and his wife discovered they are pregnant. Mauni called me to confirm whether this rumour (u.k. spelling...I love it!) was true or not. We chatted about life for awhile and enjoyed hearing eachothers' voices.
Anyway, for some reason this, walk-down-memory-lane seemed to bring a feeling to me that was very much akin to a shift in the momentum of my life. Some days you wake up and just feel 'different' for no reason and you don't quite understand why until something happens that causes you to go 'A-hah! That's why!' Then comes an understanding which fills our souls. Speaking of souls,as I was pondering about how understanding fills our souls, a mental picture came to mind. You know that picture where the background is dark but you see a small rippled pool of water (like in a well, pond or a lake) with the suspended drops of water above it. In my minds' eye, I could see the water ripple gently and hear the ultimate silence of that solitary moment. One moment of change.
Change is always present and for that reason alone we should welcome it; no matter how difficult it may seem. For instance, finding myself joining the movement of people that are getting their own blogspaces. Peer pressure? Maybe. A chance to turn over a 'new leaf' (hence the blog name)? Quite possibly. Either way, this expression of thought is mine to share. The philosophical questions, the eccentric musings, the bitter tirades, the simple beauties of everyday life, the hope for goodness to abound in the world. Optimistic? Absolutely.
