I never cease to amaze myself with my COMPLETE INABILITY to just exist in the space I am right now. I just had an incredibly productive week, completed the last of my PhD coursework, blogged consistently, spent time with people I love doing things I enjoy, and still...here I am...Friday, cursing myself for not doing more, not being more. I am so consumed with list-making and calendar-writing and planning the future, I am missing out on loving this moment here in the right now.
I guess, ultimately, that's why I blog. It feels like a way of being in the moment.
So here I am. Trying to be more by being here.
How are you today?
