Porter is Officially Mine!  Yesterday was adoption day and I have become a new pet owner once again.  So, I wear another hat!

Golly, I sure have worn many, many hats in my 85 years.  I am not just one person. Each day…or even each moment…I change my depth by virtue of what I am up to, what responsibilities I take on.  And, when I change my depth, I fill up inside, I fulfill myself and Beingness.  I learn what I can do and accomplish.  I am directing myself in every way.  It’s a personal drive in me.   There’s no competition  except an inner desire to always keep on keeping on! Call it the delicious flavor of life!

Through my years I have labeled myself, and I have restricted myself at the same time.  I’ve gotten hung up on an individual identity, as against a global identity while traveling  my Forever Path.  I haven’t been just a female of a living species called human being, I’ve been a daughter, sister, student, legal secretary, administrative assistant, wife, mother, divorcee’, neighbor, friend, shopper, car driver, parishioner, cook, waitress, housekeeper, house buyer, landscaper, author, hostess, guest, spiritual seeker and finder, Facebook member…and these are some of the titles (labels) I’ve given myself…others have also labeled me visa vie their opinions and observations of me.

I don’t want to live my life in such specificity.  I’d like to view myself as a ‘generalist in life’.  When I’m cleaning up after a meal, I’m a dishwasher, only for that time...everything I am doing is only for that time I’m doing it. Why think what I’m doing at any given time is so permanent?!!  When I keep my windows and doors of life opportunity open with a welcoming attitude, this is excitement for life and living it!

I am a multi-experiencer of life! I make the choices for my experiences!  I want to savor my experiences for what they are, not whether or not I like them,  but that I’m having them.  Let them come and go.  Accept them…this doesn’t mean I approve of all of them…but for the time being, they are what they are in my life experience. Cum se Cum sa, que sera sera, ob-la-di ob-la-da

I take on my responsibilities which for that time are just that:  MY RESPONSIBILITIES.  And I relinquish some of these semi-permanent responsibilities throughout my lifetime as well. My role as a mother changed as my children matured. I’m a retiree now, and choose my daily duties and when I’m going to do them.

I am the Pearl of My Own Oyster…we all are.

Blessed Be.  To All Be Blessed.  Stay Safe, Be Well.
