My posting today is coming from the little place of heaven on earth called Isle of Palms, South Carolina. I had an opportunity to come down and hang out with some new friends that I met recently. I took the train down from Alexandria after work on Wednesday night for some much needed rest and relaxation. So far, I have visited downtown Charleston, seen Ft. Sumter from a distance at the Battery, had a New Orleans style shrimp po-boy at a place called Joseph's and visited United Church of Christ cemetery with graves older it seems than time itself. I sat in with a writer's group and shared some of my writing and received some nice critique of my work. I went to a SC oyster roast at a place on the marsh and watched the gorgeous full moon rise over the Atlantic Ocean.
Of course, yesterday was the requisite day of college football, and I was 1 and 1 in that LSU won and MSU lost to Arkansas. Some long delayed tasks are moving off of the table and I am focusing on my health more than ever. I hooked up with a naturopathic physician and got some supplements and a detox diet to get my insulin in control. For the first time in a while, I feel that I am going to get a handle on this issue in my life.
Sometimes we need to get away from the madness of life to really see the way things really are; to clear away the cobwebs so that we can see clearly our direction or path. I am sure that I have crossed over a bridge on that path this weekend.
