The Re-entry

 

How's it going

When you fly to another city across the ocean, to
participate in an event, all that you can think about
is preparing, and how it's going to be.  Coming 
back to your life before doesn't enter your mind.

But then you're back -- a transformative week between
you in the present, and the person you were before
you met and talked to people from all over the world
about art and every other subject.

Before I go back to bed to try and catch up on some
sleep from the 24 hours we were awake yesterday,
I just want to say that Toronto has been kind -- beautiful
weather and we took a walk in our favourite park.

My image tonight is an Inktober drawing from before
I knew there was such a thing.  It's a Skype image
of my husband Steven calling in from somewhere in
the world, and the style of phone is amusing, as that
shape is not something you'd find in hotel phones
anymore.  I like the use of line in the drawing and
Steven's expression.  


Have a loving your life day.
