Last night I saw a news clip about the Aurora Borealis. I'm hoping so hard that we'll see it this summer, going farther north into Minnesota as we are. That and a moose - at a distance, mind you.
Those northern lights? They are kind of like the random bursts of excitement I feel when I realize Love Under a Dark Sky will be out there for people to read in just over a month. I forget about it because I'm working at Glendale, writing grant applications, trying to build collaborative relationships with colleagues, all the while keeping up housework, menu planning, grocery shopping, yoga practice, and on and on and on. Then, once in a while, my mind and heart just light up with the realization of the great blessings I've been given and that this, realizing the dream of being a published author, is one. And I'm renewed.
