Dear Life, There is a quote from Joan Didion that resounds meaningfully within me:
“Life changes fast. Life changes in an instant. The ordinary instant”.
I can point to several “instances” when my life changed fast and forever. Today, I reconcile “expectations and reality” while I integrate a “new normal” that is not wholly defined by any one part of me. My life embodies many parts that play with one another. Artist, friend, mother, daughter, sibling, recovering alcoholic/addict, cancer patient, member of global community, mentor, spiritual warrior.
The journey is mine to live each day in the ordinary instant.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose
