a new traveler wanders into the group...

I awoke to the loud burst of lightening and clap of thunder, my heart racing, the house shaking. I could not return to sleep so I wandered into the room of scrolls to find a new one had arrived for me, awaiting my presence on a new journey. A journey to Lemuria! I was excited and eager to go, although not at all packed or ready for such an undertaking. What should I bring?

I wandered about collecting journals, papers, pens, paints and other supplies to bring with me on this new adventure. I had much trepidation. After all my creative muse had left sometime last year and forgotten to tell me where she went so I had been rather weak in the artistic department. But then the other day, sometime in the middle of yet another rainstorm, she reappeared and told me it was time to go ahead. Then this scroll and this chance to journey into a wondrous wilderness of new adventures. New words. New colors. New perspectives. I was excited.
...
Eager to meet those already here and ready to start I pen these quick words of greeting and start moving forward.
