I actually accomplish SO MUCH when I travel! I write like a crazy person.

Funny, I fear flying and have outlawed it for the foreseeable future, but I absolutely love being in an airport, too. The getting there, the getting away from it–ick. But being in the airport itself is a kind of heaven. I think it’s the limbo that’s so satisfying. There is absolutely no pressure whatsoever to do anything at all for a chunk of time. During that time I need only respond to my own personal needs and whims. And that’s it. I can’t accomplish anything, I can’t be expected to do anything at all, much less do something right. I just have to be. In fact I can’t do anything BUT be. And that’s what I love about it. The buzz-buzz-buzz of the continuous present.

Exactly, Donna–energy and excitement. And also stillness, people waiting and reading. People in transition.

Googled that… 🙂 & was reminded of my jaunts around the Sunshine Coast of B.C.
The de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver is a single-engined, high-wing, propeller-driven aircraft…primarily known as a bush plane & IT has square windows.

Hi Helena, it’s a 10-seater Cape Air Cessna propeller plane : )

Yes, dualities. Or as my husband calls it: no middle ground : )

Thank you for reading, Megan! You’re right, and I’ve gotten better about registering the unexpected and appreciating it. I just love all the movement.
