We lose our identity when there are no reference points, now, that’s really interesting, I’m going to remember that.

Isn’t that how it is Barbara, I remember you and your nice husband, but have no idea what your hair looks like. A lesson for me.

Well Maria, all of these ladies have pretty much said it. We relate to what you sensitively and poignantly recorded about your feelings….
but, having just met you I’ll have to add my 2 cents worth. You are indeed lovely, clear-eyed, and so grounded and authentic you needn’t ever, ever feel small. I get why you do sometimes, because we all do…we allow others’ projections to get to us…but you needn’t ever feel small. You are tiny and sweet in stature but you project a whallop of totally genuine character and spirit in person. Your hair is sweet..but I understand its’ tyranny too….hmmmmm, did you see mine!

Thats so interesting. I do so badly at remembering the exact facts of things still I want to share this one with you. I once was reading an advice column (dont know who wrote it) on people travelling alone. They offered a guide line for how long one should be travelling by themselves in places where they knew no one. The point they said, was it was just human nature to lose your identity when you had no reference points. Objects, routines, familiar horizons. Now of course you are with John, and I smile when I think of him as the other “mirror” you can look in. I have a hunch on another note, that John will be going back to San Francisco with you some day. I hope your time there is restful.

I agree with Lynn. Have always loved your natural look, it’s so beautiful and reflects your authentic essence.

We humans share a lot more quirks than we think we do. This was an outstanding and real post, Maria.

Maria,
I’ve always admired your hair; it seems so shiny and natural, and suits you so well in all your pictures. It comes through that you are very pretty, feminine, and artistic.
Namaste’

This is a fantastic post Maria. Although it brings a big smile it’s message is clear and spot on.
You’re such a writer. I can’t wait for you to try a memoir. :~)(in your spare time.)
