One week to go! I am standing in my
kitchen turning in circles trying to figure out what I am supposed to
be doing and the next I wander to the bedroom where my luggage is.
It looks like something exploded and scattered artifacts of a female
human to all corners of this small room. I stare and forget to
breathe. Disoriented and feeling like a Mamma bird returning to see
what is left of her nest after a storm. I want to cry but I don't
really know why because I am not sad at the thought of leaving. And
I want to dance for joy and life because our new adventures
await.........So I just sit in my pile of rubble and wait for my
breath to return to normal.
I gaze at the chaos trying to
understand why this human has chosen these few precious items to haul
half way around the planet. And as I do, the smile returns and I am
strangely comforted at seeing a large safety pin peaking out from
underneath my Hello Kitty bag.
