Hello

Dear blog friends.

There's a lot changing/happening in my life and unfortunately that has silenced my writing a bit. I feel so afraid to commit words here because in some ways I am a believer that you get back more of what you release into the world. And right now I don't know what I want...so I don't want to release anything. It's a "Be careful what you wish for" kind of thing.

I hope that makes sense.

I hate being silent here, because this blog...and the community it creates for me has become a home. And I don't want to let anyone down. Mainly myself.

If you have any ideas on how I can help my mind to get re-involved with writing and sharing a bit...please pass them on.

I could use a little motivation right now.

Until then, please keep taking a look at the other blog project I am happily involved in at www.bepurdy365.blogspot.com

My camera has become a cherished and constant companion for me. My use of it evolves every day.

Happy Fall!

Jamie

I think you have the right idea. Sometimes you just need to step away. It's ok. We'll be here when you're ready to come back. :)

we all go through periods when we don't want to talk about what is really in our heads, and yes negative beget negative and so on. so find something positive - a beautiful child, a bright color, the face of a stranger and write something positive.

You already have what you need inside of you.

Word by Word as Anne Lamott inspires us in her book "Bird by Bird". You are doing it. You are writing.

To keep it positive, list all the stuff you are thankful for. Or do something that brings a smile to your face...

Dream big! And write about it! What do you want your life to look like? Make your own reality...

Cluck-a-doodle-dooooooooo.

Today I did it. Every morning I drive past a garden supply store on my way to work. And every morning I look at the rooster statue standing more than 5' tall in front of it and think, "I want a picture of him." And then I drive by. I'm either too late for work. Or just not in the mood. Or it's raining. Or I've got other things on my mind. In other words I'm full of excuses. I have spent more time reasoning myself out of taking that picture than it would have taken to just pull over and snap it. What changed today? The Details in the Fabric. It was recommended that I listen to this Jason Mraz song and pay attention to the lyrics. So, I did...and in listening I decided to stop paralyzing myself. To stop driving by just because I'm preoccupied or feeling lost. "Calm Down. Deep Breaths. And get yourself dressed. Instead of running around and pulling all of your threads. And breaking yourself up." And that's what I need to do. The way I&#
