hello.....goodbye..........hello............goodbye.............hello....

Well, here I go again; packing up my goods and chattels; farewell dinners and last minute appointments/meetings. The airport trek and the 24 hour airborne artifice awaits....followed by another life, other people, other realities.

I am filled as always with mixed emotions: The thrill of the journey, the unknown future, tempered with the sadness and regret of leaving this place, the Now, where I am in the present moment. There is of course the gratitude which comes from being conscious that I have the enormous opportunity to move between these different and diverse worlds. This is an opportunity which leaves me with the abiding impression that ALL of this is good, it is all exactly as it should be. The present moment is simply THIS, as it is.........all there is. Wherever I may be on the planet, the present moment is what needs to be lived...to the Max.
