I’ve been gone from here for over a year… and it’s been a tumultuous year.  I’ve been hunkered down in severe self-protection mode hiding from the world and afraid to put my heart back out there…but I cannot live this way.   I was never meant to.  I was meant to live a life of passion.  An old therapist of mine once told me that when he met me two words immediately sprang to mind…. “Sleeping Giant”  Well…this giant is waking up… and I refuse to remain in this state of fear.   So look out, world… I’m awake and ready to stretch my legs once more.

I took this photograph of a Blue Morpho this year....broken and beautiful still
