Intermittent reflections...

I seem to seldom visit this space over the past few months. Mostly this is because my focus, my intent has been drawn elsewhere as I at first began to prepare for my candidacy exams and now to actually write them. But tonight I find myself back here. I hope you have not missed my voice too much but then perhaps you too have involved elsewhere, busy with your own life.

So now we reconnect and take time to reflect on the changes that are happening in our lives. This is a time of painful growth for me. I feel a true sense of transformation achieved both through my Taoist meditative practice and my academic studies. It is painful at times. As I recently described to a friend sometimes it feels like my brain is being scraped out like a pumpkin - and I am being made into a Jack-o-Lantern.

But I welcome this struggle, this time of growth. I really do not know where it will lead me but I feel certain it will be an amazing journey. I can only hope that you too are finding such wonder in your life.
