Oh, life. Oh, crazy mixed up world. I've been so hard to get a hold of recently, because, well, life keeps happening. Let's see....I was supposed to be in Korea last month, however, the land of entrapment....and life's refusal to be planned...has kept me in Santa Fe, where I have just been livin'. It has been interesting having such big plans to ship out and start the next chapter of adventure, yet, I believe that I am experiencing another level of adventure in this city that is familiar and different all rolled into one. Tim, my friend from Thailand, came to stay a couple of weeks ago and, lucky for me, he hasn't left yet. (He really should be reading all of my posts about how this place captures you...haha...'cause he's been captured!)
So, we have been taking advantage of the time here - climbing, chilling, cooking good food, and partying a little on the heavy side every time the weekend rolls around. My body is kinda broken, a little bruised, and tired most of the time, but my heart is swelling with love and friendship, and I'm happy to be able to spend extra time with good people who bring out the best in me.
And, now, here we are. Stateside. Having a blast...still climbing...still family...still shenanigans...
I figure, we never know what's going to happen, where we will end up, or for how long, but whether you are exploring yourself in a city in the U.S. or cruising around the grand ol' 'Merica looking for adventure, like my friend Tim, the lack of plans allows for spontaneous decision making...which in my case has taken shape in unexpected family reunions. My priorities concerning 2013 have to do with community and family. So, I'm not in Korea , yet, but I'll get there. In the meantime, I'm flourishing in the limbo of Santa Fe living. I wonder what surprises are headed my direction next...
