Wow it went fast. Work is so busy and action packed. It's all good but it's all busy too. I'm feeling better today about things. Met with a board member today who really gets the mission of our organization. He's got the time to help us focus and get where we need to be. He's a peach!
Day and a half until the Illinois Marathon. I'm so exhausted that I didn't run tonight and I'm going to have to cut this short so that I can get a good night sleep tonight. I think it will be a great day and I can't wait.
Writing class is going very well. I really am 'nsync' and having a great time writing. I could do more writing but I'm pretty busy at work. I'm doing good keeping up here which helps. I try to be faithful to my blog.
I've decided to share an assignment from Lesson 2. Assignment: Find a candle, set it in a safe place near your computer, and light it. Write a one-paragraph only description of the lighted candle.
The light from the candle is constant. Vanilla fills the air. The lights are low and the light from the candle shines brightly competing for my attention. There is something soothing and peaceful in gazing into the light. I am mesmerized by the light flickering on the wick. Hours could pass and I would be lost in my thoughts sitting here focusing on the candle. I’m lost in the beauty and simplicity of the light. Reflecting on my day, slowing down, I focus on my breathing and how peaceful the room has become. This candle gives me an ambiance that I long for, calmness settles in.
Quote for the day: Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else. Gloria Steinem
