Gorgeous photo and word painting as well. I could see the heron in the stillness of the scenery.

Your sister was right. So right.

It sounds lovely there. I love finding moments and places like that. You almost wish there were someone else to witness it, but then you'd have to share. Sandy (Momisodes)s last blog post..Sibling Rivalry: Revenge

i think if we don't explore our pasts, then we can never truly live the future. feelings must be felt and then we move on. the mama bird diariess last blog post..in defense of sarah palin

The good news about excavation is that it provides foder for great essays like this one, it is also incredibly healing. And as you and Ducky mentioned, if you can look at it from the perspective of where you are now, you can be filled with gratitude of not only having survived it all, but having created a much better life for yourself and your children.

Hello ~ I often try to bury the past and I am always surprised when the past decides to rear its ugly head and overwhelm me. Our past is part of who we are and I believe that we need to recognize that BUT we can not let the past dictate the present or the future. Sounds as if you are controlling the past and it is not controlling you! Enjoy each moment! Debs last blog post..Seagull talk

This is a truly beautiful post. I have my own past stories – dark and troubling – that I’ve kept buried a long time. Maybe someday I’ll excavate. But first, I need to find a place like you’ve found where I can go when it becomes too much.

Archeology of the soul, plain and simple, is what you are dedicating yourself to. To learn about the future we must explore the past. If you are doing some excavating then it is because there is some excavating that needs to get done. Just remember to take a break, put away the tools and remember in what time you are living. It seems like you already have.

Gorgeous post Jennifer. Quintessentially you. So, when do I get my scrabble rematch?
