Feelings
when I don't know what to blog
I think -
what am I feeling.

I am feeling a bit strange.
I decided some years ago
that I am odd -
so being strange is not new.

I am different than my peers
Unique of course - but we all are.
But also I feel I/we have made life decisions
out of the social/western norm.
So I am odd!

Also it is a strange time in terms of shift.
We are on the way to a new home.
Not knowing where that is - yet
vision over visibility.

Also my core community/employment as ended.
I am out there on my own and I am a community human.
I am quieter than I have ever been work wise.
Beautiful big and challenging gigs
I love it love it
but gaps in-between!
Strange.

Maybe I need to do less and do better?
Maybe I need to accept I am not getting younger -
like you, we travel that road at the same speed.
Maybe I need to spend more time writing,
but I find that boring.
"It is easier to fight for one's principles than to live up to them."
(Generally attributed to Alfred Adler, 1870-1937, Austrian-born psychiatrist, colleague of Freud and Jung, founder of 'individual psychology' and first to define the inferiority complex.)

"Growth does not reside in a place called comfortable"
Maybe I need to accept this change
surf it
accept the uncomfortable
have faith in the process of change.
And look eagerly for the changes.

I will do a late night SWOT analysis on myself.
That will give me focus.
I will use every breath as words with the divine.
And I will revisit my vision/mission.
It always inspires me.

"It is by loving,
and not by being loved,
that one can come nearest the soul of another."
(George MacDonald, 1824-1905)
