Signs

On my window ledge at my desk I have a snow globe from San Francisco. It's a really nice one, glass with a ceramic base rather than plastic, given to me by a friend when James and I were to first leave at the end of 2002. I keep it there as a reminder of where I want to be. It's a talisman of hope.

Its had a crack in it for a while, but I have kept it there because cracked dreams are not broken – right? Where there is life, there is hope – right?

This morning I got up and found that it had broken completely. The water had run out and evaporated, the opalescent glitter it held had spilled onto the window ledge.

I am not a big one for believing in signs, but sometimes its hard to not believe that the universe is telling me something.

Time to find some new dreams I guess – as Barbie says "Another Suitcase in Another Hall ".
