fully full full full

(photo by susan tuttle)

how can i adequately express in words where i'm at right now?
i'm so filled with a new kind of peace that i never knew was inside of me.
i am full.
with new friends and old ones, strengthened.
my tribe, scattered across north america.
a renewed love and appreciation for all that i have in my own life, right in front of me.
my family, who missed me and tell me so.

i really think i should get away more often.

Hey Nina!
Meeting you was such a special privilege! I really enjoyed our conversation hiking up that beautiful mountain -- the vista was sure worth it!

Beautiful belly!

sometimes the best part of leaving is coming home.
i am so happy you had the opportunity to meet fellow bloggers and creative spirits. I read some of your comments and it seems like you made quite a beautiful impression.
