Building Community... a never ending investment?

Amazing what a job can do for your sanity... with a somewhat steady schedule and the structure of an office, I am happily on the go-go. I'm way more productive when I have to squeeze in errands in-between other commitments. It's never perfect though is it?

With my job and home security get to a peaceful place, my friend and romance waves are in low tide. Most of my inner-circle community in Pittsburgh has moved to a new place and given me a lot more alone-time than usual. Time to re-build... the exact task that felt so insurmountable when thinking about moving to a new city. I guess this is just how the universe gets it's kicks. Somewhere in the clouds there's snickering and laughing while talking about these silly humans thinking that they could find peace in others rather than within themselves. Or maybe they're laughing at the importance we put on our physical place. Either way we are always pushed around by the things we cannot control.

Perhaps everything needs to wax and wain in waves of busyness and bounty. Right now is my time to focus on my work (that I actually Love) and balancing my schedule so that I take care of myself and allow my community to slowly evolve as it always does. With a little love and patience, there are always good things to flow.
