Put it out there today on social media….wow! I’ve received so much support and positive feedback, it warms my heart!
I first want to tell you about my sweet neighbor, Don. I went to his funeral today amidst all my excitement. I had to pay my respect to the ultimate of English gentlemen. His daughter brought a book by the other day that he wanted me to have for my journey, A Year in Provence. He loved to hear of adventures….having an incredible collection of stories of his many experiences, 93 years worth of stories. I hope to carry this spirit with me in the days ahead. I’m feeling that I’ll be carrying many spirits with me on this trek and I am comforted in this thought! Love and kindness has been shown to me in so many ways and I hope I can share it with those I will be introduced to…a feeling of melancholy to temper the excitement that’s starting to permeate through every cell. I guess this brings some balance to it all.
So, that’s all I’ve got for tonight.
