Yeah, me too.
Here's a link my sis Blood offered for my soul ... 'cause she does those kinds of things!
"Bird by Bird" his father said
See what she's trying to help me do - to encourage me - is to get out of this rut I find myself in.
To extend my wings and soar!
It's a bit of a challenge what with my incredible agreeableness with the status quo.
It's dangerous. I should be terrified, scared - acting as if my life depends on my actions, my changing the course I'me following. But I'm not. It's a pleasant paralysis and that - that's a very bad thing.
So I quiet the damn dogs, I try to engage my brain and see that it's as simple as the kind, wise advice offered by friends and professional strangers both - start where you are.
Or as the fabulous poet philosopher good sir David W. states ~
“Start Close In”###
by David Whyte
Start close in,
don’t take the second step
or the third,
start with the first
thing
close in,
the step you don’t want to take.
Oh the steps I don't want to take. There's a book! (anthology? Annual? huh...)
Blood and I spoke of my intense caution, how that might be a concern.
She reminded me of good sir Martin Short's advice - be your best fan!
all of this is good - all of it makes sense - how do I ACT on these understandable and reasonable things?
Bird by bird, eh?
ciao,
