It's Been A Long Long Time

 Wow.  March was the last time I posted.  

Ahhhh.  Let me just take in a deep breath of fresh air and sit back, relax, and write a new post.

Taking a break from a project is actually good for you.  That's what I've been telling.  And it seems to have worked.  It's been a busy summer.  A few hellos and a couple of goodbyes, but through it all, I cultivated some new ideas, some new rants, and realizing the need to write.  For me it is the best way to let go, open up, and let the mind's eye look around.

I've been revisiting old stories, plot lines, and works-in-progress, but I've also been looking into where I came from.  I don't mean my childhood.   I mean way before that.  The way past...  My own genealogy. 

Grandparents, great grandparents, great-great grandparents and beyond.  I've learned about where my family came from and, in the process, learned about the present.  The struggles, the hardships, the losses, the gains.  This is definitely a new source of imagination.  Not that it is easy to image; usually I end up saying that I can't image what it was like.

Anyway, this is a rambling post.  A way to get the flow flowing.  The rush rushing along.  A return.

Now to just keep it up.
