Today I made a hasty exit. I had been too exposed and withdrew immediately. I don’t like being vulnerable and tend to keep safe by keeping to myself.
I know that is not the right way to be, but as the years progress I find that my ability to open up to another is harder. It is my Everest. Today I went to base camp and was left feeling the need to go back down. The air was too thin and I was afraid. No matter how skillful the guide, trust is not easily given in my world anymore. I am not ready to climb mountains. I think a quiet path along a stream is more my comfort zone right now.
Xoxo,

Hope you find what you need to. Trust is a tricky sucker. It can be the strongest of bonds, and it can be the ficklest of fibers. Find a balance between your heart and your head here.
BTW--the streams up here are quiet and beautiful. You should come up and check them out...
Working on the avatar...
