Writing to Slow Down
ByI am sitting at my computer working on my blog. I am aware that as I write, I feel like I am in a big hurry. I wonder if I didn’t have to concern myself with making money, if I would slow down. Heaven knows that I do all manner of things to not get stressed out and to not be in a hurry about life.
I realize that the act of writing seems to focus me and help me slow down a bit. However, my mind is still thinking about what I need to do next, like go care for my 94 year old Mom who just woke up.
I noticed yesterday that my earlier posts had a few sentences that did not read very well. I don’ t think that came because I was in a hurry then, because I wasn’t. I just forgot to read my post because I was excited to get it published.
It looks like I am really going to make this blog in part about my life, and life in general. After all whatever else we want to blog about, it is always life, isn’t it?
I am at a stage in my life where I have a need to delve deeper. It is more then a need, though, it is simply happening. I am a bit surprised to be writing this for anyone to read, but then maybe, just maybe, this can inspire others to write about their lives. It is extremely therapeutic I find. And a good help when depressed or feeling stuck. I will write more about this later.
