"We are being pummeled by a deluge of data and unless we create time and spaces in which to reflect, we will be left with only our reactions."

A quote from Rebecca Blood, whose essays on the blogging phenomenon give clear historical perspective on, and credence to, this relatively new means of e-communication. For those of you who are just becoming familiar with the form, go to http://rebeccablood.net/essays/weblog_history.html for edification. And perhaps a little inspiration.

As for me, the past several days have been filled with a wonderful whirlwind visit with Mom, being a chicadura (that's Spanish for "tough girl") in hand-to-hand combat with my chosen profession, continued development of the income business, and many enjoyable hours in long late-night phone conversations with BSW, providing us both with entertainment, stimulation, comfort, and perspective.

Genuinely open communication can only be achieved with a troika of open heart, open mind, and open soul...I'm always happy to run into another who is willing to be that fearless. And who makes it a safe journey.
