I have started misspelling words that I used to write as easily as my name. I do not realize that I misspell them until the spell checker underlines them in red.
What I get in adventure and experiences by having lived overseas for so long, I am starting to realize, I lose in my ability to express them. And each year that I am away from the United States every word, phrase, and sentence must be dredged, as if my sand castle has collapsed, been sprayed down and turned into quicksand.
