		<description>This post makes sense completely.  Go where you need to go, even within you.  We support what you decide.  You blog has been terrific, but we look forward to seeing what you see through that lense... if you have time.  
Best Wishes,

		<description>What I admire about your blog is your ability to be so real, so present and authentic.  I love that your track your life in the way of an observer which is what we all have to do.  And sometimes, I think it's true, we need to step back and simply feel and do.  Sharing disperses the energy that we sometimes need to gather.

Still, selfishly, we like to hear from you!  We like to see your story unfold.

And, at the same time, I can totally appreciate how your focus might turn outwards too, as we see it doing, towards community gardens and the efforts of creating communities that teach us to respect the planet and treat it well.

In the blog, as in life, we just have to follow our energy.  So, snap away...and let the words flow, when they ask to!</description>

		<description>Stepping back and taking stock is a good thing. I really, really believe in the percolating thing because answers and paths are not always apparent.

Joe's comment was just.....well, great. Give yourself a break.

I always enjoy what you have to say, either in words or images.

		<description>Pictures are good.  They take a lot of narrative pressure off, surely they do.

I guess I look to blogging as journaling.  And as you know well journaling is pretty darned repetitive and cyclical.  So is life, in between the juicy bits.  Thankfully, life holds lots less juicy bits!  (Wow, I would be nuts if it did.)

So, onward, Kelly!  Spring has sprung.</description>

		<description>I'm with you on all that.  The cyclical "been there, done that" nature of the year sometimes makes it difficult to write about something in a new way... especially at a time of year when I am much more interested in going out and doing!  So I'm sending you warm wishes for focusing on those other things... enjoy the new possibilities, and I know I'll be happy to hear what you've been up to when you're ready to post!</description>
