I'm visually projecting myself to some distant place, and why not. In a matter of months I'll be a divorcee, a former homeowner and mother of a grown-up son. With no job that appeals and no other close family around, why stay around here?
One by one, the ties that bind have all been cut.I'm thinking, little house somewhere near the Gulf shore of Florida...not too far from the beach, where I can sit in that fine white sand and feel the ocean wash over my feet while the sun sets. It's not a romantic vision, I feel too much like an old warhorse right now to entertain such thoughts. It's more of a spiritual-healing type vision, where the emotional pain begins to ease. I'll write and I'll paint and I'll be content...
Maybe I'll write a bestseller and make a lot of money so (hey, as long as you're dreaming...) I can buy an old hotel on the beach and fix it up nice, private rooms with thick carpets, wonderful beds, small kitchens and big bathtubs with rain-showers, every room with a view of the ocean.
It won't be a hotel though, or a spa or resort or rehab center, either...it will be a very exclusive place for people like us who need lots of emotional and spiritual healing. I would just say to you guys, come on down, stay as long as you like. Walk on the beach, sit in the sun, be social around the pool or private in your room, sleep as late as you like and come out when you want. Whatever you feel like...just PLEASE BE CIVIL. LOL.
