    She drinks to remember that she is not the job she is doing. That she is not just the job she is doing. Near the bottom of each bottle, she finds possibilities and promise.She drinks a little more to remember that it’s okay. And a bit more to remember that it will be okay.That the way it looks right now is not the way it really is or was or will be.A drink or three free her from the boundaries of her mind.Tomorrow, it will take a little more to remember a little less.Perhaps there is another way.

    Excerpt: "In no time, what looked like a barren landscape, what looked like the same thing for mile after mile, what looked uninhabited and uninteresting, changes almost instantly the moment you hear your footsteps on the ground, feel the the wind whirring about you, and find your eyes lose their focus while the whole body and mind get swept up into something so grand and old and mysterious that there isn’t anything happening anywhere else."

I tried to isolate the enjoyment and happiness of the process from the feelings of sadness and loss that naturally come with finishing the project. I tried to move from one stage of life into the other without completing the former. So much of the past 8 years has been learning how to be with life as it is as I am."
