Wow, November 8 was the last time I wrote here. I knew it was a while ago but that time sure did go fast. It’s hard to figure out how to make this a regular thing. I have so much I want to say so often, but really, who wants to read it that often? Maybe it doesn’t matter. Maybe the writing is for me anyway. It is. So why do I not do it in a journal? I do that too occasionally, but I think I like writing here because by putting my words out into the abyss it means that maybe someone will read them and understand and either reach out and become a confidant/friend or read it and feel not so alone, not so different from someone else. It is those people who reach out to say that my words have helped them that make me think that there is any purpose in continuing to write (beyond my own benefit). I admit I have dreamed of book writing, mostly because many others have commented that I should. I even began one maybe 4 months ago that I thought was a pretty good idea. Actually I started one over a year ago, during my first hospital stay. That one was decent too but I couldn’t keep going because it was about me and there are some things that I just can’t write about, so I came to a standstill. I recently came up with a really good idea about how to make it happen, but for some reason I haven’t followed through on it. So maybe I’ll start again someday. For now I’ll stick with writing here, when I feel like it. Yes, I was previously excited by ‘regularly scheduled programming’, but I just can’t seem to commit to that. So you’ll get posts whenever I have the time and inclination instead.
But, given that today is Monday Meditation, and that we haven’t done it in a while, it is definitely time for it. So, close your eyes and breathe, or open a YouTube guide and relax, and find that meditation that is good for you. Doing mine now… doesn’t it help? Let me know what your favorites are! Until next time!
