Layers

We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.
Anais Nin

I don't think I can offer much more tonight then the insight Anais Nin shared. There is a good deal of growth and change beginning to happen in life. Not a bad thing, just feels somewhat rocky and I'm not sure where to put my feet next. But I'm enjoying the adventure.

This formation reminded me of Jupiter. Stable yet ever changing. Full of color and boldness, hmm, not a bad metaphor for life these days...
