From Colombia, Central America

I am missing you, and Dad and home also. A lot of doors in my life have been gracefully and gratefully opened and shut on this trip. And I think I’ve actually done everything I came here to do, aside from practicing a little more Salsa Dancing and Spanish, but I think I’ll manage those soon.

Truth is, I’m feeling really overwhelmed with the condition of humanity and the world at the moment. Sure, I see the sunsets, but I also see the seas that have turned black with pollution. I always thought, or at least hoped, that people would start changing when the seas turned black, and now I see them walking right by, taking no notice, and it makes me want to cry.

I plan on spending the holidays and my 28th birthday in Bogotá, where I have found good friends. Bogotá is renowned for their Christmas light displays, and then I will get back to Quito. I was dancing with a school there that has asked me to perform with them. I’d like to do that. As for love, I want to smother it with a pillow!!! I am so exhausted with the rollercoaster of emotions. I love and miss you. Thank you for your love and support. I feel it every day.

It sounds like Paradise there! We had to cancel our road trip south due to coughs, not able to visit so many who are medically fragile. Maybe later. We’re not up to putting chains on the car either! Where will you be for Christmas? What’s next on your travel plans?

I fell asleep several times watching “Intend Your Life” on PBS. What does that say for me? LOL I need to get a creative project going here to pass the time, not elaborating on decorations or baking. Yard work is out. Painting appeals but I haven’t a vision for it. No pictures lurking in my brain at all. I hung a crystal over my computer to see if that would help inspire me. Hasn’t worked yet, but maybe tomorrow! I would like to intend away this cough.
Ho, ho, ho!
