Emerging.......

So, it's been awhile since I last wrote. More than a year. I was just reading a post from a friend of mine who writes his own blog. He mentioned the "light at the end of the tunnel" with a photo for punctuation. He also related the idea of emerging with that of the time of year being Lent, with Easter on it's way soon. For some reason, today, this rang true for me. I find myself emerging in my life in so many ways, and so I'm thinking that I will spend some time writing about this in the next few weeks. This time of year, we in Wisconsin are emerging from Winter into Spring. Sometimes, this means that when I walk outside from having been in for awhile, or after we have not seen the sun for many days, I feel like a mole that is emerging from her hole, seeing the sun, and, blinking/squinting, has to take some time to readjust to daylight again. I find myself surprised and somewhat perplexed by this each time it happens. But, it seems to be a natural evolution for this time of year, the seasons changing, and now, my own emerging in life which seems to be symbolic of the many other ways I'm emerging! (That last sentence sounds a bit redundant). I don't have a lot of time right now to expand on this, but I wanted to put it out here before I forgot; to start a germ of a thought, to expand on later.

The sun is out, but not directly shining today. Maybe a good place to be, since I'm emerging and full, bright sunlight might be too blinding.
