Today I felt I understood why teachers teach for decades. It can be so fun, so rewarding. Lovely.
I hate that guilty feeling when you know you're leaving... Or is it just me?
I remember my boss in Melbourne sending me a bunch of white tulips to congratulate me on my graduation. It was maybe two weeks after I'd decided to leave, but hadn't told him. I felt terrible.
I got mail yesterday. And today. So wonderful. I know I have a blog and email accounts and a phone but it was still great to get snail mail. I got a card from my friend in Iceland, and a Christmassy card from Dear Charlie's family. Nice.
I think it's gonna snow this weekend. Gosh, soon I'll be home, and it'll be damn hot. I'm thinking about the river, getting a water massage in the rapids...

Parting is such sweet sorrow, isn't it? We humans don't fancy change. But life is constantly changing without our consent, and who knows -- perhaps you're about to embark on a leg of your journey that will be the best ever. You never know.

Dan, I'm excited, not scared. Change is good, happy to be a catalyst in my own life.
