I unearthed three more boxes of journals in the garage today and a pile of paintings.  The images presented are some photos from todays haul.  Actually I am happy they showed up.  It is a chance to really slow down and be with my raw 20 to 25 year old self.  After I had taken what I thought was everything to the dump last week part of me was feeling like I might have rejected the way I expressed myself in my early 20’s.  I was just saying to the art group today I need to do some work around this and poof!  The journals appeared.  It was as if they found their way back to the garage from the dump to give me a second chance.  One particular entry caught my eye.  It was written during a solo backpacking trip when I became lost in a snow/rain storm and thought I was going to die.  I did not read it through, but I am grateful to have the opportunity to fully reconnect with this pivotal moment in my life.  I will be taking my time reading it, along with the remaining journals, before letting go.  I even found a long braided ponytail from my 20’s.  To feel my hair and see the color brought so many memories.
