GETTING HERE OR THERE

Saturday Mar. 5, 2016

 

See it … ever, or never?

Can you see it from here, from where you are?

Two ways to see the future – as some journey phase, or as leaping off point of our next journey. I often thrill to be living the second …. but spend too much time lamenting my cranky-esque-ness about those too mired in negativity, regret and disappointment - in that first mode.

I say this, see this, sitting here on this hinge point between ‘week that was’ and ‘week that could be rather than would could have been. Between where I’ve been and where I’m going. Mathematical logistical types will argue this hinge-place space could be any day – simply a construct in my mind.

Exactly.

They have it right, and if not, they will get there, to here, eventually.

To hear.

Here.
