Adieu Old Life of Mine, that of London and its familiar haunts, perhaps even adieu to many a familiar face and voice. Strangely, I am not at all sad. The old Me would have bemoaned the loss and tried desperately to figure it out, fix it. I feel at last free from the chains of my former existence. I am happy to acknowledge this new-found state of mind and happily await my return to Australia. But first, a small trip to the homeland - Portugal. Tomorrow is the day.
