I haven’t meant to be an absent blogger, but events in the
last weeks have demanded all of my free time. Ha! Free time! What’s that? I
have traveled in and through five states. Included in my travels: a birthday
celebration, a road trip, a marathon, extended house guests, rekindled
friendships, and a writer’s conference. Oh, and a stint as the Assistant
Director on the South Carolina Shakespeare Company’s production of King
Lear! Whew! I have to say, although pretty exhausting, I loved every
minute of it.
I’ve caught up a bit on my sleep and feel compelled to try
to see the big picture here. This is definitely not how I usually operate. Not
since my children were little, anyway. I usually try to keep events and opportunities
to a dull roar. I like my quiet time. I need it to write. To stay centered. At
least I thought so. So what was up that I couldn’t or wouldn’t say no?
Have you ever thought about Signs? I capitalize on purpose.
I think life is full of signs. As often as we notice them, just as often we
ignore them. I’m trying to assess why so much occurred in such a short time.
Were they just random events or were they a sign that I have been wasting too
much time? I know I have written more in the last weeks and my creativity is at
a peak. What’s up with that? I don’t know, but I’m inclined to go with the
flow.
See you next time:)
