Grazie.<br />B.O.Grandma, I like the idea of gaining perspective and then writing. Things are percolating now. <br />Gabriele, Welcome! I checked out your blog and agree on shared interests. I even lived in CA for 14 years! Oh, and Italy...!<br />Nanny, You put such a good spin on things for me. I'm grateful for taking the leap and doing what I wanted despite the "reasons" not to. Very real and beautiful- a sculpture, a painting!<br />Patti, Also a great perspective. This is our time, isn't it? Yes, a fab summer!Grandmother Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18169464484379536529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7356093701102910263.post-91529038066915129352010-09-09T06:07:08.480+02:002010-09-09T06:07:08.480+02:00Life?

I think writing after the fact is okay; I can take advantage of the opportunity to have thought about some of my experiences and put them into perspective.
