Getting away…

Sitting in Bandon, Oregon at 4:45 in the morning — and pondering what distance does.  Like everybody else, I think I deliberately keep myself tangled up when I’m at home.  Having a sense of purpose is wonderful but creating a schedule with no space to think or explore is counterproductive.  I think being focused and busy is my way of tethering for security.  Driving up the gorgeous California coast has been a breather and a reminder to open myself to new ideas, new images, and new challenges.  And the biggest challenge will be taking this clear understanding back east with me.
