Leave-Taking



The winds of change are blowing blustery and fierce in my world.

Decisions are being crisply made.

Things that seem to make sense are being left behind.

Former identities (which served me well) are being shed.

Much that held my interest for months, even years,
no longer captures my attention or occupies my time.

There is a distinct pull toward a new horizon.

Daily Messages are confirming its beacon call.

And I respond to its magnetic tug as a powerfully healed and radiantly whole Being.


I am strong, confident, peaceful, and sure.

Areas that were once cloudy with confusion are now vibrant with clarity.

And while I am by no means done with my changes, something very interesting (and unexpected) has happened during this past month...

I have outgrown Nerdy Renegade.

What began in March 2007 will end here.



With post number 464.

This forum ~ and the richness that has come into my life through those who read it ~ have saved my life.

Honestly.

*Saved*my*life.*

It is impossible to express what it ~ and you ~ have meant to me since its inception.

And it is equally impossible to ignore the mystical gypsy that has been forged within me ~
in what I am only now coming to realize and live out as my re-connected Self.

Most assuredly, there are myriad details I could share. Yet I am not inclined to do so.

I made a promise many months ago to live without apology or explanation.

And this seems like a fitting time to hold my secret knowings close in my heart.

(Truthfully, these recent changes have come about so swiftly, that I have not had the ability to capture them and their profound meanings in any sort of cohesive way.)



I will not say good-bye...for we will surely see each other here and there across the waves.

Instead, I leave you with this question...

As Mary Oliver so boldly put it,

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?"

Great post, Lisa.
Great words.
Wonderful quote/question.
Take your leave with peace, my friend.
I'm so glad to know that you and I will continue as friends.
And I look forward to where you go from here.

It looks like I'm a week late to this news. I'm glad you're following your true self.
