Transition

Next birthday to arrive is my 50th which I am sure has something to do with why I am doing this blog. The last two major birthdays (30th & 40th) have shook things up but nothing to compare with this one.

Am I really going to loose all this. Yes. Sometimes the impact of that shakes me to the core. I have been seriously wondering how I am going to cope.
Then I get moments where I do not want anything to change because of the deep sense of peace that comes with them. Usually it is out in nature. I regard myself as fortunate when it comes to my journey to and from work. I drive through the countryside from one town to another and at the moment it is changing daily as it gets greener and greener. With window open, even queuing for traffic lights can be a blessing. A brief time out in the day that is a blessing and something I am very grateful for.

These are images of where I drive.

I know this is all so transitory and yet .............. I have these moments when I feel that stillness that underlies everything. That space where nothing changes.

A quote I recall from the past - "You are where your attention lies"
Most of the time mine, lies out there and is very small, that's when I feel discomfort of one sort or another.
