inspiration for the day
woke up slowly - did NOT go for coffee -
shaved, brushed, cleaned, showered and dressed.
now I'm eating cheerios in front of the laptop...
I need to find something to do - it's still cool out - so I think I'll
go for a walk after this journal..
I seriously need to take my own advice in finding inspiration out there...
I'm intensely trying to save money for a financial goal I have but
in so far was what to do with the time I have on my hands - I can't just
sit and do nothing...y'know?
I'll make the bed and play with Blue..then a zoom call at 9am...
then to my folks house around lunch time.
no need for deep furrowed brow thinking - it's just time for fun...
I'll try that on for size!

Sounds like you're making your way to relaxing in the moment! Excellent!
it's weird but I think because I have so much chaos inside and also that when I determine to be self responsible so intensely to deal with it - it inspires in me a directive to be solitary and accomplished in that - to block out all others so that I can focus on that basic simple equation of being self responsible - but what I am seeing is that I really don't want to be alone
or in other words I see the need to be self responsible and the will for it but I can do that while being along with others.
I enjoy work, and that is a practice at being in the team way of being - and I also have a cause that I am a part of (the Treepeople) and that I join in a team event as well (I'm reminded of what my therapist said to me in terms of having a mission statement about my life) Right now it's a solitary weekend, so far, except for my time with Blue..
so perhaps I will just check in with that impatient exaggerator inside that is telling me I need a big change - when in fact
it's just a day or so of dealing with solitude.
I like the walk idea.
I’m telling you, the writing class I took over the summer made me appreciate my walking time sooo much more! Try writing about your walk. There are many prompts. Walking is good solitude time. Lets you sit with your isolation and do something with it by putting it in motion!
thanks Nikki!
I sincerely believe that Inspiration finds me, not the other way around. The harder I chase inspiration, the harder it will elude me. When I can open my senses and calm my soul, inspiration just might land lightly on my shoulder. Sometimes it even follows me home, but it can and will fly away at the first sign of control efforts.
I believe in Muses. Angels really do whisper to those who walk and they can't be bought. It don't cost one thin dime to listen.
Thanks Arfie!
