can you feel it closing in around your toe, your ankle, your shins?
does its temperature shock you? or welcome you?
is the river pulling you? are you letting it?
i'm trying to let it take me where it will.
i'm seeing all kinds of things along the way. i'm inspired by this journey. i'm experimenting with laying my head back, and with seeing if my toes can still touch the river bed. i'm seeing scenery that blurs as it passes quickly, and finding other times when the river slows, and i have time to notice a new kind of flower, a patch of moss.
you know the saying, "you can never enter the same river twice."
do you agree?
when i entered this river, this time, i was going in by myself. i didn't know who i'd find there, and what it would be like. and now, i'm seeing there are many of us in here.

the river is teeming with voices. voices sharing this journey with me, sharing their journey with me. i'm feeling so blessed.
what is stirring your waters today?
are there rocks tumbling and smoothing themselves on your river bed? are there reeds that are slowing the flow? is there a great tree with roots reaching into the river? are you fluttering your feet as you drift? are there winds kicking up little rapids? are there raindrops splatting and plopping on your surface? is the sun dancing madly?

today i'm going to write on the last page of my current journal. it's a journal i've been writing in since the end of march. it's the end of a certain time in my life. another significant seven month period. and it's the beginning of a new journal, and another significant time in my life... what the next months, and what the next journal will gather and reveal is unknown. an exciting time: an end and a beginning. i'm ready to jump into a new journal, a new chapter, a new river.... with you. let me know what you're thinking...
