597 posts later...i am walking away...
saying fare thee well to this place
three years ago i found my way to blogger...a time in my life when i need a place to simply write. to escape my reality...the life i created..i needed distance from some in my life and was seeking a more deep and powerful meaning within my life and my relationships.
so i came here and i wrote...i wrote and wrote and fell in love with this space...i fell in love with the friendships created...
i fell in love with my life all over.
back in january of 2012 i bought my own .com. as the days of 2012 came to play time was not on my side for achieving my own personal wants. it was a tremendous year. one in which i feel has come full circle in the strangest scariest saddest yet successful of ways...a year in which i grew on levels i never thought could be possible.
i came here a few months after my father in law passed away from prostate cancer. i cared for him during his final months. i watched life slip through the sands of time. in august...three years and three days after the passing of my father in law i faced accepting that my father has been diagnosed with prostate cancer...i have seen it...watched it...felt the pain as much as a loved one possibly could...a road i hoped i would never have to walk with another again.
this circle has been haunting my spirit...yet re~awakening my mind...
yesterday i sat in front of this screen and said to myself...today is the day...i am going to end 2012 as it should have begun!
the.chapter.is.complete.
alas for me
oh i still have so so very much to say...to share...to show
i thank each one of you from the very depths of my soul for being here...each of you are daily reminders that have not gone away...your whispers are heard and have helped guide me quietly in my day to day...your friendships cherished beyond any words i could write...
this is not the end...a beginning
that should have started quite some time ago
is where you shall find me
gone from here...
but still out there in this big crazy world in which we live

Wishing you a very Happy New Year. May you be blessed far and above all you could ask or think.
I will check out your new place.
You've faced some unbelievably challenging, painful tasks this past year- I don't think there are enough hugs I could send your way. But I'm going to try all the same.
Happy New Year, Brandi. May this year be filled with blessings and happiness for you.
