Ever Moving Ever Learning

Back in 2009, I lost my job as a Senior Legal Researcher in a prestigious tier-one law firm. Having been on Bay Street for close to 22 years, the shock of that day felt like a tsunami had come upon the shores of my life, taking my breath away.

Since then, my life has changed DRAMATICALLY! I have been faced with the ebb and flow, which is my life, challenges that are met with equal support from friends and family. I have been stretched to limits beyond what I ever thought possible. At times I feel like Gumby, stretching to the point where I think I might break, yet, always finding Zena-like inner-strength to adjust and resize to the shape that is me.

How would I define me? Hmmmm....positive yet mildly sceptical, curious yet slightly cautious, courageous yet fearful, always loving, always caring, always nurturing, always wanting...to be loved, to be acknowledged, to feel valued, to be understood, to live in the now. I am complex yet simple, I want for nothing, simple pleasures, erotic moments, sensual touches, longing gazes...I am forever evolving, forever reaching for the best "me" that I want to be.

As long as I am evolving, I am learning. This is the true essence that is my life. This is living to me!
