Another Nowhere Here I am, nowhere wondering how long my placement will be. I ache almost as much as one who can't feel, wheelchair bound, lifted (in spirits) only when another arms herself to do so, the strength growing, even if lacking. Always between the demand, not wanted, yet the aloneness still felt when surrounded by the need of others. Missing my place, my own nowhere, time fielding the impatience in me.

A long time ago when I was in Nowhere, my mother gave me about fifty seedlings to plant in her lane, etc. (Very kind of her...Right?) I don't think she planned it to be a lesson in living, rather, a way to get her trees planted! But what came from it was that it gave me a "setting" to my Nowhere. It gave me a "Somewhere". Each season they became stronger and I realized I could, too. From what I've read in your work, you are in a "Somewhere" utilizing roof maintenance talents, gardening, and educating minds. Hang in there; better days to come. I think you're a pretty special somebody, M. Sincerely, miscellanea |

I can't get on here properly on another's computer (more illiterate on my part to a different operating system...but I thank each of you for your kind words and to let some of you know I am alive and well although in Tenn. rather than PA...my brother had a knee replacement, his wife is paralized ( has been for years) and my mother needed someone to help until we could find a CNA or someone capable of lifting my sister-in-law...therefore here I am interviewing and being let down by those who say they can and want the job only not to show up the next day ... sighing~~~ in the meantime I am the "lifter" etc... p.s. Bernie...if you can make the time and a halfway meeting let me know...I will be here for at least a few more days. M |

I forgot what a great smile you have, Maureen. ![]() "Always between the demand, not wanted, yet the aloneness still felt when surrounded by the need of others." ~ Deep and moving in meaning... on how I take it and what it means to me. |
