SOON! I'm working on several posts (all in my head at this point) and look forward to writing a lot over the weekend. I'll resist the urge to actually write a "real" post now as I'm supposed to be, you know, doing the work thing. But I had to check in and say that I'm excited to have FREE TIME this weekend.
Not to mention how thrilled I am to be rested enough to actually form a coherent thought.
That always helps.
Between now and then, if you want your world turned upside down a bit check out these spectacular posts from Angie and Melissa. They are fabulous (and famous) bloggers on an amazing trip to India right now with Compassion. Our world is so much bigger than we can comprehend and there's so much out there beyond our comfy and down right opulent lives. So much we don't want to have to think about, and yet it's unconscionable for us to just ignore what the vast majority of the world endures every single day. I've been following their trip as much as time has allowed this week and am moved, wrecked and just in awe of what they are experiencing and they way they are sharing it.
Right here and now I'd just take back each and every complaint I've had over the past few weeks about how "hard" things have been lately. Seriously. I'm going to complain about too much work? Or PC problems? Or even a couple of silly toes?
Geeze. What a brat.
More soon...

Totally totally agree. We all need to be aware of how good our lives are even when things aren't going exactly as we'd wish. My friends in the "worst" circumstances or with the "most stress" still have it so much better than the vast majority of the people on this planet! Not that we don't have ups and downs, and not that they aren't significant, but you are so very right.
