Northern
California
Three of my
four brothers moved up to Northern California, one taking my mother with
him. (My father and husband passed in
2008). Then my only child and son got
married and moved to San Francisco. So
recently I moved to Northern California after having spent most of my life in
Southern California (with just a few temporary journeys elsewhere).
I am charmed
by the oaks and pines of the foothills of Lake Tahoe, where I find myself
re-planted. This time has been spent
reflecting on my old life and imagining what my new life will bring. I find it is a time to reassess my old programming
and my knee-jerk reactions to a more compassionate point of view. Everything in my life has brought me to this
point in time, and all for my higher good.
This week I
have been making “money purses” and going through my photographs. I like to do new things as often as possible
so today I made a berry smoothie for the first time (with chia seeds). I also have a couple of blogs that I like to
update frequently.
My room looks like a cross
between a factory and a library. The
sliding glass door is open and I hear birds and the rooster crowing and lots of
very fresh air is coming in. Off in the
distance I see the snow covered mountains of Lake Tahoe.
All feels peaceful
and serene.
