ACEO DAY 319 CONTEMPLATING THE FUTURE

THE SEARCH

Day 319!  Under two months now and the year of cards will be over.  I'm still unsure of what direction I'll be headed next but I think, at least at this point, that I won't continue a card a day.

In the beginning I was in hopes that this would generate some income.  It really didn't.  I also thought that I might get some publicity.  I'm not a self promoter so that didn't happen either.  Others would have, that is something that just isn't part of who I am.  But, it's been a far more important journey for me than the hope of income.  I can look back and see clearly where my thoughts and heart have gone.  The activist me has been outraged, the empathetic me has hurt for those around the world who are in pain, the creative me has been all over the place.  It's been a sort of diary.  A diary open for my children, those who know me and some that don't know me to read.  There's been times I was crazy, sad, confused, unsure, worried, spans of happiness but mostly looking for something that wasn't there.

In my mind this is the time.  This is the time to go for another adventure and search.  I turn 60 this year.  I'm reaching the point in life that things can't be put off too much longer or the window of opportunity will pass.  I'll be too old.  I don't have a companion to travel with, well I do, it's my dog Shiner.  Is that crazy to hit the road at 60 with your dog?  Really, I don't know, input would be nice!

I do know that I will continue the blog, it's my journal, but my guess is not every day.  Today I don't know what tomorrow will hold.  My search continues.........
