one for my blog….

a place to put down my roots

for photo friday….

i took this picture last May – during my birthday train trip in Napa.

even though my cousin says this movie reminds her of the stupid Keanu Reeves movie – A Walk in the Clouds – i thought this pix made sense for me.

today’s theme is desire. due to the changes in my life – all the upheaval and all the chaos of moving – I desire a place to put down roots – a place I can call home . i left job – and my heart numbed a bit – it was place i poured a lot of heart into, for the last 4 years. i left friends behind, in the bay area – and each good-bye squeezed my heart into pulsing aches. i’m about to say good-bye to my family and i know that will hurt even more……saying good-bye to Mark – a bittersweet moment that I dread – more than anything.

i know i can home to my family. i know i will have a home in Mark’s heart. i just hope that i can make that sense of home a reality. something warm enough to comfort me as i’m freezing my ass of for the sake of my degree- at Northwestern.
