Live as if you were
to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. [Mahatma Gandhi]
I woke up unusually early early today. I
should say my brain did… Sometimes I feel Life is a final exam and whatever I
DO Right Now is what my entire grade hinges upon.
BUT… That is simply NOT Life. It is, well, it’s fear.
Experience: that
most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn. [C.S. Lewis]
My brain was going on about my upcoming move. Chiding me
for NOT BEing 100% totally livable AND moveable NOW. For still having
attachments to some stuff. For NOT BEing willing to Let Go and start over again
from scratch.
Everything has its
wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in,
therein to be content. [Helen Keller]
I read awhile. I meditated. Visualised. Breathed. I let
my “panic” have some space. And then I got up. All of Life is juicy and worth
living full-out. All of it. Even the crazies…
I think that
somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision. [Eleanor
Roosevelt]
I didn’t think I’d leave the Wee Cottage. Didn’t imagine
going back to AZ. Yet here I go, learning to make up my mind…
I love you, Currie
