Scary blank page

There is nothing scarier than a blank page for someone who wants to write. That is what I am faced with today.
Living 'in between' is probably the reason for the blankness I feel. Living 'in between' probably needs some explanation. First of all we are all living 'in between'. We were born on a certain date in time and we will die on a certain date in time. In the meantime we are living 'in between.'


Then there are many times in our lives when we live 'in between.' At the moment I am living 'in between' the last time I went on holiday and the next time. The last time was at the end of last year when we went to America. What a wonderful holiday that was. It was worth every cent we paid. I learnt so much about life, about others and so much more about myself. It's all very hard to put into words...better felt than telt! We also saw the most beautiful rivers, lakes, waterfalls and mountains. America is a very beautiful place. The world is a beautiful place.


My next holiday starts in just a few days. I don't feel excited yet because I have so much to do still. There is cleaning, shopping, packing, dogs to wash and all their bedding to wash as well. We are going to the Outback with Wendy and Richard and we are taking Jesse, our Labrador who is six months old, with us. It will be an adventure.


I am also living 'in between' selling this home and buying another. There is a lot of talk and looking and planning but nothing concrete. So that makes me feel 'in between.' I am inpatient and want this to happen now.


So I am practicing enjoying the 'in between' time. Using it to rest, plan, and do things I like to do. Once the 'in between' time is over there will be no time for doing things I like to do. I'll be doing things I have to do, like packing.


So I'll sign off now and do some reading. Till later......
