After an absence...

I have been away from this blog for months now. Until I just checked I not realized that it had been quite so long. The past months have been very different - transformative in many ways.

The biggest change is my new relationship that seems to have exploded into my life out of thin air. It truly was unexpected and we both have o step back from time to time and shake our heads. Logically we admit that we may have moved more quickly than reason would advise but as Pascal says "the heart has reasons that reason cannot know." So now here I am living in London, Ontario still toiling away at my dissertation, searching for work and most importantly living with an amazing woman. Gertie Mai can best be described as a force of nature though she is much more modest in her self-image. Somehow she swept me off my feet with just a smile - a rich heartfelt laugh - and of course a sweet kiss.

I am both content and joyfully happy.
