Yep, yep, I know those are the defining moments in life.
Well, come spring time I should be well defined I am telling ya!
Or dead.
Yep, those make it or break it kind of defining moments.
Many of us are going through those moments as of late, maybe even for a few years now.
The encourager needs to be encouraged.
As a result, fate, or life, or... pushed me on a slightly tangent path from what I planned this winter.
Its as though the harder I worked toward a goal the harder Mother Nature worked her magic to block my progress.
And she is still at it.
STILL.
I guess for now I take it in stride and learn some new (and needed) skills in patience.
Do what I can for now and be ready for when I can do more in the future.
The set backs of this past year - after so many strides that were made in the previous - have made me feel a bit raw and edgy.
A bit of a chip on my shoulder too.
These are life issues one must revisit every few years.
I AM enjoying my foray into middle age much more than I thought I would be.
It is so good to know yourself and be respected for that.
The things I AM self assured about - in a healthy way - give me great joy.
Those simple pleasures type of joy.
I think this is one of those very important lessons that need to be learned on a continuing basis throughout life:
being self aware and knowing what to do with it.
A contemplation complete and true.
So many things have been just ...
UP IN MY FACE.
Like a demanding two year old with a snotty nose and a sagging, rotting diaper. (Gratuitous mommy analogies are what I am all about. Its what I know best.)
I need a mental bubble bath.
I need to get back to being squirrely, instead of bearish.

Stay squirrely my friends, stay squirrely - tomorrow is another day.
