Today, after a long week, I find myself short on words on Day 7 of NaBloPoMo. They are in me but playing elusive, evading order and leaving my fingers powerless against the blinking cursor of my laptop.
Thoughts, however, dance through my mind, begging attention and consideration. Is a mother’s mind ever quiet? Today, I had planned to write, but my thoughts had other ideas.
Well played, thoughts, well played.
When was the last time you just sat with your thoughts, and allowed them to go unrecorded?

Oh my Mary if I recorded all my thoughts I’d probably be in trouble! hahaha I absolutely think it is important to sit quiet with one’s thoughts.

It really is, Elin. It’s in those moments I can sift through the noise of the world around me.

I had just such a moment on Wednesday. I was shuffling from one task to the next, trying to keep myself occupied, when I remembered how I used to just rest on my bed and let my mind wander. I spent a few minutes just staring at the ceiling. It wasn’t long, but was long enough to make me think I need to make time for that again. Sometimes the best movement comes from stillness.

My thoughts are often so scrambled and unorganized, there is no way they can be translated to a coherent piece of writing. I do believe that quote, though, and try to keep my thoughts positive. I always believe things will turn out okay.

If I had kept a log of the ways in which we are kindred, I’d think we are clones. 🙂
