Synchronicities, those unexplainable, meaningful coincidences, always give me pause.  Just a few days after I started this blog, I came upon these lines from Reeve Lindbergh’s FORWARD FROM HERE : “I don’t think that the details of writing, or of speaking, either, need to be titillating on the one hand, or tedious on the other. I think the details on the written page need to be there for their own interesting sake, and to hold a place for all that is real in our lives, minute by minute and molecule by molecule.”

I can’t help but think that the Universe called in the big guns, via Reeve Lindbergh, to insure I had a clear sense of what aholdingplace was to be – neither titillating nor tedious – but a place for all that is real in my life and perhaps in yours. How’s that for a mission statement?
