Uprooting

I had to say goodbye to TJ today. I was very tempted to try to keep here here but, like me, she has responsibilities at home that she can't escape so easily. Our lives parallel each other rather closely at the moment. We are both striving to create more freedom in our lives, but although we've loosened some of the ties and pulled out some of the roots, we're still stuck where we are for a little while longer. Much like this tree!
