July 15 Don and I will travel to Ireland for two weeks, where I will help coordinate a study abroad program for first year students coming to MSU in the fall.
This is a photo at Tara in Ireland from last summer when I visited two study abroad programs. The yew trees welcomed me with ancient arms. I felt I'd lived there forever, that I was one of them.
I want to be in that churchyard today, sitting among the yews. I can close my eyes and be there when I need a break from a crazy day at work (today!).
Isn't it nice to have a spot to "go to" when you need to meditate, go inside, or just chill?
Or is that escapism?
For me, it's not. It's not that I want to be there, not here. I just want the peace I feel in that place. So by closing my eyes and "going" there, I find peace within.
