"And now the end is near And so I face the final curtain,
My friends, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full, I've travelled each and evr'y highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way." - Paul Anka

I feel great contentment.
Completion means rest.
Rest means renewal.
Renewal means new beginnings." - Deng Ming-Dao, 365 Tao Daily Meditations

"You're going to miss the slow times and quiet days. Your anonymity, stealth, and small circle of friends. Plodding along at your own pace, working in spurts, and wondering where your next break will come from. Even your uncertainties, doubts, and fears will be missed.It just works like that once massive dreams start coming true. You'll manage just fine." - The Universe

Hello
What a quirky wonderful blog you have going here. I stumbled upon it while checking out my stats and am intrigued. I just love the maps and their meaning and like to use them metaphorically as well. I will make sure to keep coming back to check out some of your links.
cheers
Heather
