Looking for the Right Place

If you want something really important to be done you must not merely satisfy the reason, you must move the heart also. ~Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)

Life is extraordinarily eventful in a frenzied way, these days, rendering me entirely reactive (as opposed to pro...). Planning and order seem to have been tossed out the window for the time being.
Frustration abounds and yet the urge to keep moving and to be vibrant dominates my daily consciousness.

Now long into July of 2007, I had hoped this midsummer time would be fruitful in a relaxing and creative way। Yet it is filled with endless incongruities and, interruptions which oddly seem to provide exactly what I need to know; all the while distracting me from a search for that which I believe I need to know and do।
Truly, I would scream and scurry around in frustration, if I were not somehow getting exactly what I need in the most lopsided and yet satisfying way।

Probing expedition require a certain indefinable, yet completely sensible evaluation.

How will one know when one has finally reached the “right” place? Well, I really hate to say it, but one just knows.

In no particular order and to help move along in my thinking, a list of descriptors...

Distinguish
Identify
Be au fait with
Recognize
Discern
Grasp
Comprehend

And the modifiers...

Suitable
Fitting
Pleasing
Wanted
Needed
Required
Attractive
Advantageous
Proper
Desirable
Best
Reasonable
Correct
True
Exact precise
Perfect



A few exploratory side trips, a great deal of investigating.... and somewhere along the convoluted and self guided path, the spot will announce it self. Yes, I truly believe it.
Stay tuned.

I enjoy the art scene in the Santa Fe area. Have you looked in that area for places?

I really love New Mexico and I think it is a better place for you than maybe Arizona is.

We are enjoying Arizona, although it has certainly changed dramatically from the dusty little desert town that we knew years ago. New Mexico is rather new (to us), since we have not explored it as carefully (yet anyway). Time will tell. I very much appreciate your take on NM and so forth...

Have recently spent a few months in the desert southwest and to tell the truth, I preferred NM to AZ....... that's just my opinion tho.
