06/05/01 - Just doing a little puttering today. It's very quiet, very calm. However, I can't seem to sink my teeth into any particular project. I've just found myself flitting from interest to interest. That's fine. It's a good way to take advantage of the quiet. I was becoming overwhelmed thinking about how much time and effort my simplification project is requiring. I couldn't seem to find the right music to accompany me today. I tried Donovan, but had enough after listening to only half of my collection. Then, the Rolling Stones, which did provide a bit more energy. I finally settled on Gilbert & Sullivan's Patience ... how fitting was that? So, I contemplate the quiet. I'm happy with the peaceful feeling I have, even if my surroundings don't actually reflect that peace. There's time for that. I'm content with seeing the small, gradual changes. I'm just as interested with de-cluttering my inner self ... small, gradual changes there too. Some of the baby plants from the "nature" project are looking a little weak. So, now comes the nurturing. I know something about that. You just do the best you can with what you have. A little cleaning up will make a lot of diffence outside too. It's all about effort, I think. I will certainly give it a try. I'm real curious now to see how my projects work out. I like these quiet days. |

Dream A Little Dream ... |
Happiness runs in a circular motion Flutters like a little boat upon the sea. Everybody is a part of everything anyway You can have everything if you let yourself be. ~Donovan |
