Starting Over

Today, I left once again an old life behind me-not because it was boring or worn out- but because we are like a snake, sometimes being forced to peel off its skin, even though it had really liked the pattern of it.It is interestingly difficult to leave the intimacy of a carefully structured every-day life and stand up to face the challenges of the raging unknown.But in the end it is what we are here for- denying that would be denying our humanity.So I'll just go with my fellow warrior (or at least, well, kind of) Churchill

"This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
