Stretching a Bit...

 

There's something I need to get out of my head.

About two months ago, maybe three, my doctor

called me "hyper responsible".

'Don't know if this is more toward negative or positive (!)

but it bothers me.

Kind of a lot.

Today I felt the need to s t r e t c h

and maybe just scribble

and

not

be

quite

so

responsible.

Maybe.

And though my journal / notebook shelf

looks truly inviting to me right now,

I don't want to look back at my life

and feel I stayed the same,

I stayed on my Shelf,

or

was so darned responsible

that I didn't just let loose more.

I am trying to breathe more deeply

more slowly

and sing louder

laugh more

look ahead

let go of the things I worry about

~ that usually never

happen anyway.

And I've even stopped to smell the flowers along the way

and to close my eyes

and

just

  be...

I am learning to meditate again.

Much love,
