It’s just beginning to dawn on me that I will be leaving next Monday for a week or more right in the midst of one of the busiest and most significant periods of my life. Maria will be around most of the week and Ben all week, and I will learn that these changes to the new farm can be accomplished without me. I want to push hard for “Dancing Dogs,” an important book for me.

What is important to me?

Maria.

My work.

My new farm.

Maria’s Studio Barn.

The dogs. The animals.

My photography.

Being honest and fair and good to people.

Living without fear and anger.

Growing, changing. Improving. Evolving.

Moving forward. Opening Up.

Shedding blame, for me and others. Like anger, it is useless.
