It has been a while since my last posting, on this site or any for that matter. There have been many developments in my life since that time. I have moved more than a thousand miles from my home, and I am still exploring my exciting new environment. I am settling in, and making new friends and finding new places to hang out. I am writing this place from a Panera Bread restaurant. I have never been to one before, but I have to say, I really like it.

I have been trying hard to remain focused and to remain centered. I have not gotten the opportunity to meditate or even contemplate things nearly as much as I would prefer for the last few weeks, and I do have much to contemplate. Without going into too much detail prematurely, there have been some interesting developments in my personal life. I have successfully freed myself from the attachment I once had to those who I thought I could not survive without, and I have discovered a whole new love for someone who has been in my life for a long time, but has gone mostly un-noticed. It is amazing the path the journey of life takes us down at times…

There is so much uncertainty in the world, and in my life right now that it is somewhat difficult for me to prevent myself from panicking and losing precious time to worry. Thus, it is critical that I make the time to refocus and recenter myself. It is important to remember the principle of impermanence, and that all things, good and bad, will pass in time.

I just wanted to give a basic update, and ensure the world knew I was still alive… I will write something more substantial in the near future.
