Balance point

For the past couple of days I have found it difficult to compose my thoughts, or even to let them flow for that matter, and so have missed a couple of days of writing this week.  I know, it is not a RULE perse that a writer writes daily.........but as I wrote that I realize that yes, it is indeed a Rule if I am ever going to take my writing to the next level........you know...making a living at it....

I remember getting my first teeny tiny cheque for a submission of mine and feeling wonderful.  Of course I let the ball drop, or perhaps got caught up in this life of mine in 3d.  Anyway, for whatever reason, back then I started to led my writing slide until I found that I was not writing anything AT ALL.  There is no way that I will allow that to happen, so I am giving you, out there in cyberspace, a part in ensuring that I remain diligent and disciplined in my quest to put words down daily....or up daily, or however it is when using this forum. If for some odd reason you don't see me here for an extended period of time, let me know you noticed and kick me in the butt.

I have made a decision however, with respect to my living arrangements.  As I'm sure I've mentioned, I recently dissolved a partnership and, unfortunately, I had not really put a solid exit strategy in place.   So, thank the Gods for friends, I have been housesitting a friend's home while she is on a European adventure.  She returns on Thursday and I have been trying to decide where I would like to settle.  It has really been the dilemma as I kept feeling the pull to my old neighbourhood - with the ocean, the park, people walking all around - but just not feeling the urge to physically go and find anything.  Not that I was panicked about it all but I knew that I had to find something eventually and sooner, rather than later, to ensure my pal would have her space to herself.

So the decision is to move in with a friend who has also gone through her own separation and a huge transformation at the same time.  I had originally thought of moving my stuff there until I found my own place and to that end, I helped her clear out the space so when I got it together, I could utilize the cleared space.  However, she has just moved her bedroom downstairs to a NEW room that her and her uncle made.  She laid tile and laminate flooring, painted,etc and is now ensconced in her new room and offered me the large bedroom UP stairs at a very reasonable cost monthly. Lots of space for both of us, room to offer my meditation circles once more, and breathing room.....for one and all.

This is not intended as a long term arrangement, but a chance to help her out with the prep work for our new healing space and a chance for me to continue coming into a place of balance in preparation for all that is coming in over the upcoming months.

So now that I have that little dilemma out of the way, a place to live, I can now focus on the work that I am meant to be doing AND writing of course....smile

Have an awesome day/night.
