The Vortex Within

wikipedia

Have you ever had so much to say that you can't say anything?

That's where I've been over the past few weeks.

(Okay, no, to come completely clean, it's been months that I've felt this way.)

Tragedies, victories and everything in between have been swirling together from winter into spring, creating a vortex of words, ideas and emotions. And, like any powerful vortex, it's shaken me up and is working like hell to spit me out into a thousand tiny pieces.

But by God I won't let it!

When you experience powerful events- tragic, miraculous and otherwise (and who doesn't in this giant, ongoing event we call Life?)- millions of words, thoughts and feelings pile up and are just itching to spill out into the open. But where does one even begin? How do you contain an avalanche?

Honestly, I have no idea. But I am certainly not giving up without a fight.

So please be patient while I begin again. Enjoy the silence while it lasts for just a teeny tiny bit longer.

Because once I start talking there's a slight possibility I might never stop.

God help us all.
