am officially on holidays and I am torn. I'm happy to see friends and family but so sad to leave behind Yellowknife's beautiful autumn. It's the longest, loveliest one I can remember and I so wish I could be there to see it through to its proper finish. But what is autumn when there are people to be hugged and coffee to be shlurped? Priorities, Colleen, priorities.
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
