A friend suggested that the missing key episode on my last day at the cottage might have been just the push I needed to lock up and drive on home. I like to believe that I have made the psychological break. I have wonderful memories of what I a call my ME (Maine) life as I settle into my MA (Massachusetts) existence.
While at the cottage I lived in time and space. Now I am moving from a literal to a figurative cottage life, which I notice opens up more possibilities because I’m not confined to physical time and space. My hope is to take my cottage by the sea with me wherever I go and sit in it for however long is possible and necessary. That has to be that way, no matter what my circumstance or life stage. I still have the keys to open new doors and drive to new places.
