Wow, it's been a long time since I posted last. And much has changed.
But I'm not talking about the political landscape, though that has changed as well. But I'm less concerned about that at the moment. The change has occurred in me.
My interests have shifted, based on a shift in consciousness. I joined a local community farm, because I'm interested in permaculture and local food sourcing. I'm looking into that new Whidbey PUD issue. That could a monumental change. And I'm furthering my ties with the fire district. So my interests and focus have moved more into the local scale with the idea in mind that I want to participate in meaningful change.
And over the last year and a half I've lost a mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Actually, in the last 6 months. So it has caused a reflection on my part as to what matters in this lifetime, and how identified and invested I want to be in my own opinions. Turns out, not that much.
So I'm glad to see that this web site is still functioning, and I've learned of another for Whidbey residents. Change is blowin' in the wind, and really has been for a while. Politicians just seem to like to capitalize on sound bites or buzz words despite being two steps behind. And Whidbey Island is no exception.
