last weekend i saw some friends i hadn't seen in a while. they spent the winter in South and Central America, volunteering on organic farms. of course, they had lots of interesting experiences and stories to share.
then they asked what i had been doing. i didn't know where to start, or how to sum up my mundane / exciting life to them. so i just said that i've been riding the dragon, doing my day-to-day stuff. they laughed and seemed to know right away what i meant.
when my neighbor Matt first mentioned "riding the dragon", i immediately loved the expression and adopted it as my own, since i find it a most clear description of what my life is these days...
i'd love to write more, but it's a beautiful day outside, and the kids are restless to go and play. actually so am i. hopefuly soon i'll get to sit again and share some of the insights and experiences i've been having lately.
peace
