Arcadia...a knapsack is something travelers carry their belongings in while on the run, ususally it's tied on the end of a stick, and connected to Hobos.
It's a metaphor of sorts ....
Hey Soozen so good to hear from you! And your words are comforting and wise, and gratefully taken. Thank you.
It's Thursday, and i'm about to send off two more resumes, add to the evergrowing list, of I think almost 20 now. Someone will bite, I mean somewhere in this barrage the odds have got to give me at least one response.
In the meantime, and there is some of that, I've been sitting staring at the walls, trying to write poetry, but it's always lousy when I try. Nothing is coming, the channel seems to have collapsed under my stressing about a livelihood. Silly right? Heh.
The blessings do not escape me...I mean I could be in a way worse scene and i'm aware of that. As long I keep from letting those conventional thought beasts get me down, I can get into the adventure of it all.
I keep envisioning a little place, my daughter there, my cat there, and enough for really forgetting about needing enough. What a grand experience that will be.
Next week Stella turns 16 on earth day. It's hard to think that just "yesterday" she was 2 and loved to sit on her blanket on the floor with me, readin books, and laughin our heads off with silliness. I miss that. But it remains a "happened" as Marksman said so wisely in one of his posts recently, never to not have happened. Amazing how that one statement brought me so much peace.
Anyway, ta ta for now.

PS..Hey Mnaz...want to meet at the Spar in Oly sometime for lunch?
Lemme know!
