Home is Massachusetts… It always has been, even during the almost 19 years that I lived in Los Angeles, and the 7 lovely months I just spent in Maine, home is and always has been… Massachusetts. And… It’s good to be home.

Home is a drive along Main Street in Amesbury, looking across the Merrimack River to Newburyport… A walk along the waterfront park in downtown Newburyport, admiring all the beautiful boats in the river.

Home is a short drive to Plum Island…

There really is no place like home.

Leaving Eastport with a Heavy Heart

027

I love Eastport, Maine. It had been a dream to move here for a few years. Sadly, you never know what direction your life will take you in and that is what I find myself in the midst of at this time. Although I am excited about the prospect of moving back to the area of Massachusetts where I grew up, I will be leaving Eastport, on Friday with a heavy heart.

It’s been a joy to live across the street from my wonderful niece, Lisa and her family. They were in fact one of the primary reasons that my daughter and I moved here to Eastport. We’ll miss having family so close by, but the consolation is that it won’t be as hard to come to visit, as it was when we lived in L.A.. (more…)

The Flow Of My Life

“I seek not to direct the flow of my life, but to let the flow of my life direct me. I recognize that I am exactly where I am supposed to be, doing exactly what I am supposed to do. What I can change however, is how I react, when I am placed in a situation that may not be pleasant or comfortable. In that circumstance, I can reach into my center, and draw my energy level up, where it and I can act from the highest good – love. The key is to remember to act consciously from love, not to react from fear or anger.” – Pamela J. Leavey
