Something has Gotta Give

Such hustle and bustle through the summer, watching over kids, taking care of staff, and creating programs to offer youth hands-on experiences with nature. It was quite the summer.
Now that it's over, I get a chance to breathe and reflect. Whew.


Love Hurts
I felt lost for most of the summer...and always behind. My creative writing has started now and as my feeling pour out, I notice how I'm five or six months behind. I'm exploring my heart in ways uncommon to society's norms. For one, I had the most amazing privilege to have my heart opened up with compassion, understanding, and gentleness...not to mention patience. I fell in love with my best friend and she continues a love. She is, like many, a love in my life that will never be replaced and certainly never forgotten. How lucky am I to know such passion in my heart for another. It's not a matter of how I give too much, it's a matter of how I'm not afraid to give it all. It has taken me months to realize that it is as it is and it is just not meant to be. I will always be there for all the people I love and it's simply because I am strong. Only now, am I beginning to understand what unconditional love really means and what I mean when I say that I'll back you up. I look forward to sharing my pains and sorrows and continue to share the stories of magical moments in my life. All in all...the deeper the pain, the greater the moments once shared!

Work and Play
I've been working tons...playing, not so much with others, but in my own space. Guitar, song writing, poetry, stretching, bird watching, and soon photography of all the cool birds migrating over Camp. I will be heading off to Yellowknife for a week and to visit my elders to share some culture. Not sure what's up for January, but I will be around for this year's Christmas...that, however, is not a promise!
