May is a busy month for me. Beltane, Mother's Day, the first anniversary of this blog and my wedding anniversary, along with weddings, barbeques and graduations. So many reasons to celebrate. So many blessings. I'm welcoming May with open arms.

Where am I going?
Do you ever feel like somebody forgot to give you the map when you started your life? Frequently, I wonder which turn I missed that led me so far astray from my plans. Other times, I am simply amazed by where I've gone. Right now, I'm surveying my options and starting my map.
If I were to draw a map of my life, it would involve mountains and hidden valleys. The topography would be steep and jagged, and flat ground would not be major feature. Some of those mountains, I would have climbed, while others have been left unexplored. Green trees and brush would camouflage the rock. I know secret and hidden treasures, and these would like waterfalls and caves tucked in among the stones and trees. A sparkling, clean river (all those things I've learned) and all of it's tributaries would wind along the mountains until it met a vast, deep, blue lake high among the mountaintops. Right now, I'd locate myself on a mountain, as I try to decide where to go next.
What would your life look like if it was a landscape? Where are you going? Since nobody hands you a map and tells you where to go, you have to explore your own life, but making a map is incredibly useful. Don't worry about the "mistakes" too much, maps are constantly revised.
