Dream A Little Dream ...

08/25/01 - I just woke up from a little nap. I used to take these little naps all the time. I called them my power naps. Just 15 little minutes and I'd be good to go for a good long while. It's been a very long time since I needed any power I guess. I think I just got into a very scheduled way of living ... like clockwork. I can go back to spontaneity now. I could probably stand a little power too. Basically though, power isn't my thing. Some may see me as not standing up for what I really want. That's not it though. See, I'm an observer. I like to be present, fully, in the experience, observing every part of it. You need to be still, be quiet when you are observing ... You will miss something if you aren't.

The summer is winding down. Three out of four of my boys will be going back to school this coming week. Three out of four of my boys are gone for the weekend, taking advantage of the dwindling summer days. So, I'm slouching today ... Enjoying the peaceful, easy feelings. I wonder how much of this I can take? I think I may take another one of those power naps and then get myself out for a little playtime. It's all about observing you know. I wonder what kind of observations I can make tonight? Hmmm, add a little mystery and that makes it even better.
