Well, it goes without saying that it is purely cliche to commence writing with endless blabber about the silent period betwixt postings. So, I will spare you the litany of what all has transpired within the last few years and instead plunge into the deep end. I am certain, knowing myself, that one way or another you will eventually hear many a tale regarding happenings, but for now I'm rather happy to just be here again. Many thanks to the soul that has inspired this renewed interest in returning to this blog. You know who you are.
The chaotic events of life that have, as it were, stifled any sense of creativity within me to write are no longer stumbling blocks to me and so I am without excuse to sit idle and avoid the dreamy lust I have for a well phrased morsel of words that says it just right. I don't know why I allowed things to cloud me and keep me muzzled. I have always been, and continue to be, a people watcher and for years I kept little Moleskine journals with all manner of odd things that I had observed or words that I heard for the first time that made me laugh and wonder. I am happy to feel the stirrings within me towards contemplation again.
I think that somewhere embedded in this blog there must be a reference to Bruce Cockburn, a Canadian singer songwriter known more in Canada than here. Look for his song "Pacing the Cage." The last few years have set me to ... pacing the cage and if you listen carefully you will understand my absence from this love affair I have had for many years to write.
Thank you to the soul that helped me regain a feeling of azure skies.
