Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.

t has been seven months since I moved back to the family homestead. It has been an interesting journey so far and it isn’t over yet! I have been jotting down notes, thoughts, rants, and raves since September, but I haven’t shared them yet.
Part of the reason is that I am still processing things. But life is about processing ~ it doesn’t end until our life does. Sometimes part of processing is sharing that process itself with others, receiving encouragement and respectful and loving criticism, and giving encouragement and hope to another’s journey.
The other reason is I haven’t been sure where the proper forum for sharing those thoughts and lessons learned is. This blog is mainly about art and culture, which can cover a broad number of topics ~ fine art, performing art, food, manners, poetry, etc.

Now, I don’t write just for the heck of it. Ok, maybe I do ~ I can’t not write. However, I don’t share my writing just for the heck of it. You, dear readers, are the reason I post. And since I can’t decide, and this journey is too crazy and fun not to share, I’m going to leave it up to you! On the right, you will see that I created a poll. It will be open until April, Friday the 13th [mwhahahaha!]
Vote early and vote often! And get your dead relatives and friends to vote too!
Oremus pro invicem,
