An Open Road to Everywhere

There was nowhere to go but everywhere,

so just keep on rolling under the stars. ~ Jack Kerouac

Lately, instead of writing and sharing, I've been pouring myself into my real world... the things I can see, and feel, and manipulate with my hands. I've...

I have not written about any of these things. I have not taken many photos. I have simply lived each moment, the ups and the downs, all strung together. And now, I am here, again, in this space and not sure where to go. I don't want to leave the real... the now. I want to bring it here in a way I can look back on and reminisce; and in a way others can look in on and understand, or learn, or empathize, or feel inspired. Or not.

The new year feels like an open road to me... an opportunity to take a new path; a viewpoint from which to watch the sun rise over a misty field, or to gaze up at a clear dark sky and catch a falling star. There is nowhere to go but everywhere. So for now, I'm going to just keep on rolling... Care to join me?

Leave me a comment and tell me 5 things you've been doing in your real world. {Or write them down in your journal; shout them into the night sky; whisper them to your dog. Whatever. The point is simply to take stock of what you've been up to.}
