SAUDADE

Saudade is a Portuguese word that doesn't have a literal English translation.
It's an expression of the feeling of missing some one or some thing...

After 9-11, I felt SAUDADE.., and I knew I needed to leave NYC in pursuit of that 'some thing' I was missing there.., but it wasn't until 2006 when I visited New Mexico that I began to discover my heart and soul, again.

The Journey continues.., arduous, anchoring and often alienating.., but awakening, all the same.

I'm still here after all this time.., 'tho I look up and out and wonder just where I might wander to, next?

Any suggestions?
 From 2007, age 50, seven months into my sojourn in the desert of New Mexico.
