Meandering Mind - Eva Dillner [77]
It is appropriate that I move from here at the close of this book. This house has been a healing place emotionally and physically. Now it's time to go out in the world on another treasure hunt.
I write, I paint, I travel
It was hard enough to write this book the first time around. The book turned out to be one long ode to my longing for connectedness, in a relationship and in a larger organizational context. The writing helped me own how much I longed for those connections. Writing about it shifted my perspective and released my need for having them in my life. In a way it's weird to write about something that isn't in your life. On the other hand, the not having it sharpens your feelings and beliefs about it.
Working on this second edition some six years later is an odd experience. A love relationship has not knocked at my door, nor am I working in an organization. I've come to accept that it's meant to be this way. I've come to feel quite ok about it. Most people think I lead a fantastic life. I write, I paint, I travel. Alone. I've grown to like it. At times it's tedious to always be the one in charge, of everything. But for the most part I'm content to have it this way.
Today, a hedgehog appeared in my yard. Hmm what message have you brought,? I wondered. Grabbing the Animal Speak book, it says:
Let love into your life. It's time to open your heart.Your gift is to give and receive love.
Funny how the universe works. I'd reworked the entire book but this last chapter had me stuck. Until now. Like a finishing crown upon the works. I have no idea what's in store for me. Perhaps a change is in the air? Typical though for life to take a turn when you least expect it.
