lost and found . . .

LOST (sometime during my state school education)

• one pair of beautiful wooden clogs that were a teensey bit too small

• many 'friends' that didn't want to be there when the going got tough

• all sense of confidence in my ability to 'do mathematics' / the feeling of maths as being spiritually connected to our awesome universe/ all wonder and awe that used to live inside of the wee child i was for this subject

FOUND (today and on other days since joining Edinburgh Rudolf Steiner)

• one pair of beautiful wooden docter marten clogs that fit perfectly

• many friends that have already helped me grow as a person in ways i never thought possible

• a rhythm inside of me that makes me feel numbers in ways that i have only ever felt words before/glimmers of understanding of those huge concepts that make us swirl from star dust into beings in mathematical form/ a very excited little girl that has found that awe and wonder all over again and is NEVER going to have it taken away from her again
