Linear thoughts are overrated...

{excerpt from page 53}
The Highly Sensitive Person, Elaine N. Aron Ph. D.


Seemingly out of nowhere, yes? Darn the Universe is good! I read this while we were vacationing, (I am now back at home and quite refreshed.) and immediately felt a tinge-you know the one when you realize; hark, this is me. Yes, well that one.

I'm either all the way in, pining about my seeming lack of motivation and trying to jumpstart it with all matter of caffeine and brute force, or all the way out at sea drowning in brilliant-albeit overwhelmingly exhausting, creative ideas. Right now however, I'm in a good place and hoping I can ride this feeling out at a comfortable pace through the holiday hoopla and into an exciting, but tolerable new year. Which incidentally will begin sometime in February, likely on a Tuesday because the pressure of beginning at the beginning is far too great.

I hope you've all been doing, feeling and living well!



Peace, love and random banter

good to know you've returned safely and are in a place of comfort--spiritually.

thanks for the writings... I too am in a great place right now, looking forward to a new year after a challanging year... but I have my design & my art.

A week later...I love this and I love the thought of the revenge when you don't treat yourself well...I'm refelcting on this and I didn't know it till I read it written this way :) (How's that for a nonlinear thought!)
