I remember when I began blogging. As I l reflect about that time, six years ago, I hardly recognize the person I am now. For back then I felt as if I was in a cave - alone and isolated - from family, friends, therapist, work-life, and worth-while-ness. I explored emotions and my inner life with a quiet desperation.
Indeed, my blog at that time was called: Tamarika, In and Out of Confidence: A Journey to the Center of My Self.
I remember it as dark - and the silence was deafening.
And now?
Life is full - as full as can possibly be.
Why, it seems as if my house plants bloom and re-flower constantly - even on the coldest wintry days!
I cannot work out when, how, or what shifted in me.
I wonder ...
Did I blog the blues away?
Love more openly?
Or is it that, in fact, I am starting to feel more love-able? I guess I discovered this recently in therapy, and I must admit it was embarrassing - even enraging - to face that I can no longer blame others for my feeling victimized or marginalized.

so happy for you xo
