Time Away

My fiancé and I went away this weekend.  We both needed the time away. 

Spring had arrived.

 Someone doesn't understand what being green means.  That is almost a sin here on the west coast. 

I made another cat friend.  I have made a lot of cat friends in my travels. 

I went into Chinatown where I bought come CD's and an amethyst that I can squeeze my grief into.

I found a message for all of us on some steps.  

I found some seagulls to love.

I love crows too.  Because someone has to.

I searched for a four-leaf clover so  I could make a wish.
  I didn't find one. 

We went to different book stores where I cried in the death and grieving section.  A thought came to me while standing there that maybe if I never moved again my mom would not be able to die.  I cried on the way home because I am returning to something I am not ready to deal with.  I returned to my kids and my cat.  And life continues even if I don't want it to.


Namaste
