“If you zoom in too close, a spiral appears to be a line…” I’ve said this before, and now I realize it’s my life.

The ties you think should have been broken or at least disintegrated after so long an absence hold firm. The prodigal daughter takes a road that ends up where she began.

Come to think of it, I am always dreaming of the land I came from, where people dig for ore in their sleep, where the violent punch of waves turn rocks serenely round, where sweetgrass grows and no one mows it down, where the loon calls and you return home to earth again.
