I have never really written much. Over the years there are tidbits here and there. Sometimes I get inspired, have a thought and suddenly I’ve jotted down a paragraph or two and it resembles a poem. Recently while sitting at my computer I opened a page in an application and suddenly I am staring at this big beautiful blank page. I call it beautiful because that empty page calls out to be written upon. Imagine stringing together words and with those words creating anything. It’s like magic.
I am learning to not criticize other people. I am finding this practice to be quite liberating. 😎
I was at my friends store and he reminded me that this candy is a favorite of mine; just like Snickers.
A lot has happened lately. I am immersed in conversation (me talking to me) about the stories we tell about ourselves. About judging and blaming others and what it takes to be forgiving. I am learning to not be tortured by the past but to learn from those experiences.
Many years ago I took my mom to see Christo’s Umbrellas. One day later, bad weather contributed to a fatal casualty and the installation was dismantled.
This blanket is one I held onto when I moved to Mexico. It’s been cold lately and it makes me feel at home.
I was thinking about the word for today compassion for the current photo blog challenge. I was reminded of some lyrics to a song by David Byrne. The song is “The Call of The Wild”. One line goes like this: Two mountains love one another; for a million years.
I have a lot of compassion for this woman. She has experienced great loss in her life and I respect her for all the hard work that she does.
Using one’s platform to display compassion is a win. I don’t know this person but I like the message. twitter.com
