Today I find myself looking forward to the end of this challenge, of letting the spirit speak and soar in its own way...I think that, to a great extent, I have been working on the same tasks for a number of years. It's good, however, to be reminded (prompted) to attend to the spirit, to keeping it (To the extent possible) on track, nourished, tuned in. And I haven't always exercised the discipline to allow that to happen. Yes, discipline/common sense, can be freeing.... You can probably tell that the spirit flagged somewhere in them middle of the month. Why was that? Pain, lack of sleep, lack of 'productivity,' failure to recognize and honor the process of being on the back burner..perhaps all of the above.
Today's inspiration:
“The chief enemy of creativity is good sense.” -- Pablo Picasso
Prosaic, perhaps, but 'seems to me we need a healthy dose of each. Our thoughts and spirits may soar, but we still need to walk on the earth with others, and that requires some disciplines of its own, which may or more likely may not mean having anything to do with writing.
So, let me tend to the dishes and get to bed, for tonight!
