I didnt/havent responded. It doesnt really warrant it, I guess. As I get closer to coming back we will have to communicate to set logistics up, so there will be plenty of opportunity for that, I think.
I am in beautiful Crater Lake National Park right now. Yesterday, egged on by the friend I am visited, I leapt 15 feet off a rock into the 56 degree water. A year ago I would never have dared it. I like the shifts that I am making and the person I am becoming. Less fearful. More mindful, capable of living in silence. The friend that I visited in Portland was a great role model for me in that regard - very grounded, centered, mindful. He is able to sit in silence and just be good with himself. He just reinvented his live, moving out to the west coast without a job, and he has gone about it in a very deliberate way. I want to be like that.
