It is Monday June 3rd, 2013 and the shape of the world is...indifferent. On Saturday last two uncommon Gemini women celebrated their birthdays: my mother-in-law, and my wonderful surrogate daughter. Each of these women are a strong part of my story, the story of my bed-and-breakfast, the story of my marriage, and the story of the bulk of my life -- and will be treated later in multiple separate posts. It is enough to say that on this date, on this Monday, on this fresh start to June -- the Shape of the World is ongoing and seemingly indifferent. Things just move on -- forward, down the road, towards an ending, gaining complexity and clarity/confusion all at the same time.
There is no seeming explanation for why things "are" the way they "are." Every little piece of knowledge I gain via reading, or contact, or listening -- just adds to the incredible and mystery that is life going forward. Sometimes filled with desire, sometimes bereft of feeling at all -- life moves forward. I miss talking to Tosha -- my surrogate daughter -- almost every day. I don't miss talking to my mother-in-law Millie -- because she was so "inhumane" towards me and her daughter for so long.
And there it is: the one grain of new story put out there for all to read this day -- and for me to contemplate and recheck for accuracy and truth.
