Reflections on a Long String of Days

A constant tug-of-war(such high

casualties

in a civil war like

this)can

truly be exhausting,leaving

hardly a thing

for this

silly

little

thing

called living.

Back Log

So, when I started this little blog, it was a challenge to myself to write something creative every day. And I kept up with it for some time. Then Kristin died, and I lost all enthusiasm for breathing, let alone writing.

But life keeps moving.

And the heart keeps beating, even if it's broken a little bit more than it was yesterday.

It's 2012 now; it's a new year, a chance to start over. I'm getting back to writing every day.

I know that I'm nine days late in this renewed venture, but I figure nine days late is better than not starting at all.
