I apologize for my silence on the
blog over the better part of a month. Here’s the update: I finished a rotation
my Gainesville rotation with Sensory Integration (I’ll post on this experience
soon…putting the final details into the post), I packed all my belongings-books,
clothes, books, journals, shoes, and did I mention books?- into the ‘Green
Machine/Sven’ (my wonderful Green Honda) and started my drive north!
This probably was the most
emotional time to leave the state of Florida, knowing that my return won’t be
until mid-December at earliest and potentially not permanent. With that being
said, there is a lot to process and new post ideas keep popping into my mind
(along with photos to go with!) Here’s a sampling of the works in progress…
“Having driven the road of 75 many
times, the usual stops occurred, peach farm and the cheapest gas station around
($1.89 per/gallon). The road has been a part of my life for so long, from trips
in high school from Tennessee to Florida, to summers spent in North Georgia and
the countless Tour De Florida throughout college. And while this season of
vagabond, nomadic life has been grand, I can’t help wonder what lies on the
other side? The stable side, you know, the one where you aren’t living out of a
suitcase…”
“There’s something about the
morning stillness. When coffee is still being brewed and the sounds of feet
running throughout the house is a distant echo. In that morning stillness we
reflect, we share and we begin…”
“She walked downstairs to join us
in the kitchen. With yummy creamer and sunlight streaming in we asked her how
she felt, expecting an outpouring of emotions. Instead she smiled and said, ‘I
get to marry him today,’ and her peaceful smile reassured us that was all that
mattered…”
I’ll keep you updated on the road
as the journey continues! For now know that I am safe, God is good and life IS
a grand adventure!
Love,
Danielle
