been a while

.... so long in fact that blogger setup has changed and become easier for us less techno enclined people. nice!!
 
So, since i last wrote, i ran off the cliff a bit scared but enjoying the freedom. Currently I am still in free fall, the fall being much longer than expected. So it has been a case of waiting......
 
But someone once said ' if you can learn to wait you have learnt everything'. I still don't fully get that one, but certainly there is an art which i have yet to master, of just sitting and just resting in that place. Rather than always looking for the answer or the end point.
 
The lesson for the free fall has been - it's about the journey that you travel, and what you learn in the process of traveling somewhere, rather than the place itself.
In my scientific head that made very little sense because it is the result that you measure things on, that can be compared to other results and so marked or graded or something....
But actually it is more about the people that we become, that we meet and the One we discover that makes it worthwhile.
 
So if you ever stop moving, you know your in trouble. Because when you stop you think you have found it, when actually 'it' is way bigger than that.
 
So it's the balance between resting, waiting and enjoying the journey.
Tricky, but fun....
