In the thick of it....

And all I can say is that I WANT TO CRAFT! It's been a heavy week. Full of reading and such most of the material is pretty fascinating, but man, there's a lot to read. And I have come to a realization that I need glasses. The entire "fuzzy" appearance of words is not good, folks...not at all. It mostly happens after I've been reading for a while, maybe it's just that I'm tired, but still, it's bothering me, so I should be a good and get them looked at...mis ojos! What else do I have to share with you? Well, lots...and the one thing or shall I say "fact" that I found out today is this:

Women have larger Corpus Callosum.

I think we should all do a happy dance in celebration.

Happy Dancing!

It's happening....

I feel like Summer is officially coming to a close. And it's a different kind of feeling here in Colorado. Leaves are starting to change color..I mean they did that a bit in Austin, but here, gosh, things are really changing. The weather is starting to cool off and I'm feeling so chilly in the mornings and evenings. I have to admit...I'm feeling a bit sad about summer coming to a close. I'm feeling a bit blue. I have never experienced Colorado winter, but if it's anything close to Chicago winter, well, I think I'm prepared. (They say that Colorado winters are so calm and they say there's not too much snow..but still, it's gonna be colddddddd!) We have to buy little man a winter coat, so the search begins. Would any of you internets like to be part of a letter swap? Lemme know...cause I'd love to start something. Tonight, I'm going to a "green" party where everything from the food to what guests will be wearing has to contain a color of green. It should be fun. So can you see colors of "Fall" where you are? I'd love to hear about it...

I'm here...

So, this week is my 2nd week at Naropa. And all is good. There are moments where I feel uncertain of my presence there, if it's the right program, you know, those internal conversations that you have with yourself during quiet moments, ya those. It can be emotionally draining, yet always fun. And I'm even enjoying Clinical Neuroscience....pretty fascinating stuff. It's just that there is this aire of wisdom there that scares me at times. Where every single person seems so much wiser....this knowledge you can smell almost. And maybe it's just because this is the most passionate side of who I am...it's the place where my fears meet my joys. Where my joys meet my uncertainties about who I am in this world and who I will be. And I think about my future as a psychotherapist and I think about my father. How I miss him.... I think I can hold a great space as a psychotherapist, but there is so much that I don't know and here, right now, I'm learning it folks...and it all feels good. I have this song in my head... And I apologize for no photos...but just be patient a bit more friends..okay?
