---or not to---

I have attempted this piece before, apparently not so well. I admit to enjoying what I am doing. A blog seems to give my mind exercise and everyone can appreciate that. When  and what prompted me to start, I know. It's the elusive "why" question.

My blog is not intended to be a diary. That is a different can of worms that I do not wish to overturn. I think of it as a "stream of consciousness" narrative...a place to rail. Perhaps a by-product of some of my own questions; Where am I?Why? Who is out there? What do I want to do? How do I communicate?

When I returned from Rome, the house was silent. An absolute reversal of everything that was my life for three months and on all our previous visits. I am not a farmer, a gardener or even someone that wishes to retire. This is my way to make myself and my ideas known. Whether they are accepted is not the goal. Trying to make the reading enjoyable is. One reward for making this attempt without proper schooling is that all the rules are mine...and I can change them at my own pleasure. I will not willingly try to say something hurtful. Disharmony between us solves nothing. So this has become my way of having a conversation with all that read it. Conversation is two-sided, please complete the connection. 

My inability to physically reach out and touch so many of you is boundless. This is my best shot.
