MIA

I feel terribly that I missed our gathering. :( I have not been checking my home email or the blog, and for some reason thought we were meeting on Saturday....... I look forward to our next gathering in Nov.

I have been super busy trying to get organized and find balance with the start of the school year. Anyone else struggle with the summer to school transition? Things are going well though. I look forward to seeing everyone next time. :)

You remind me

You remind me I am good.

You remind me there are people who genuinely care.

You remind me I am loved.

You remind me I am lovable.

You remind me I am capable of being social in a group.

You remind me I care about you.

You remind me we are all human and ok with all of our baggage collected during our life's journeys.

You remind me how awesome we all are.

You remind me hugs are important.

You remind me how lucky we are.

You remind me.



I've been asked what and how I am doing...so I wrote another poem...

Summary of my space in this time

floating
creating at will
drifting between
watching
listening
reading
coloring
painting
beading
sewing
enjoying emotional equanimity
pretending to job hunt
loathe to relinquish the soothing creativity.

Courage Reunion September '08

Wendy's Belly

Hello all.

I saw Wendy today and I have to say she was beautiful!! He belly is poofing out and she is certainly looking like a radiant mom to be! It just reminded me of what a powerful community Courage is for in that moment I was reminded of so many treasured memories I hold from this past year.

Hope everyone is well and ready for the school year to start again.

kay's email

I am hoping for Kay's email address. I want to see those Cherry Trees.

Great Plays for 7th Graders

If you could work with any play and a group of 7th grade students, what play would you choose?

Triathlon

Hey guys! Bekah here. Many of you know that I was in my first triathlon this past Saturday. It was an amazing experience. (Amanda was in it too). In case you were wondering, yes I finished and although there were times where I thought I might drown (1/2 a mile in the water seems to stretch forever when you are surrounded by other peoples bodies) I found that if I just kept stroking/paddling I made it and all was well. I have some great pics but it might take me a while to figure out how to download them because well..........as most of you know I am technologically challenged. But yeah for new adventures anyway :)
