I’m having a hard time this week
A week has passed since this country further revealed itself for all to see.
As usual I am handwriting this on what is really a tiny sketch pad with a fine pen.
It’s about 8:00 PM on November 11th, 2020.
I’m having a hard time.
For the past year or so, I have felt myself disconnecting. Head, heart, and hands are in alignment but in parallel play. Rarely do they intersect, let alone weave together.
I shared a bit about this late Summer.
There was a moment in early November when they were coming closer together, like planets. But in the last week they moved past one another.
There have been fleeting moments of being fully connected. Like a breath.
I share this because I find the observation fascinating and wonder how others are finding themselves.
Honestly, I’m curious. Where does this find you?
