SmellAndPlace

[ChickenLil] Hello to all - It's April 1 and I came to see what the Ecotone Wiki is about. I "met" Cassandra recently, because I found her weblog to be resonant with my own, and we even started our blogs the same week a year ago, just before the start of the war. I think my blogging has helped to keep me sane through this past difficult, challenging year, in which - among world events and personal changes - my husband and I finally sold our home and land in New Mexico, which we had spent twenty years caring for...despite the powerful oppositional forces in a transitional neighborhood. Our family grew up and was gone. It took a long time to get out of there, and at times was a wrenching experience. I feel freed by the release, and do not wish to be back, but the memories persist and I try to keep my focus on the beauty, love and healing that were present in that place. [Post on SmellandPlace?
