I never knew somebody just like you, be a friend I can call my own, til I let go of a broken heart. I let go to an open heart. I let of my broken dreams. I let go to the mystery, and I believe in the miracle. I believe in the spiritual. I believe in the one above. I believe in the one I love....

Costa Rica, Fall 2005
Against a slate gray/blue sky a gull soars by – as I try to pull a straggling hair out of my ear canal (God, what kind of location is that for a follicle?).
Dusk begins to settle over the lapping waves, one degree of light contrast after the next steps us towards a black pin-hole sky.
I’m still here and I already miss the sounds of palm fronds rustling against one another. I’m trying to remember it all. Two days until my scenery changes or rather a plane deposits me some 2500 miles north. (click to read more)
