I go in and out, don't you?
Into flow and gratitude, and out of it again.
Into grief and hopelessness, and out of it again.
Into routine; cooking, walks, connection
And then into bed, the bath, my head, my tears.
These days call for the ability to sway, sway into reality, sway into empathy, and back again.
Dip toes into fear, anxiety, awareness and rest in creativity, distraction, comfort.
We go in and out, like tides creating our own slow rhythms-finding the pulse of survival.
Everyone knows what works. Few do it after it stops being exciting.
Style is a very simple matter; it is all rhythm. Once you get that, you can't use the wrong words. But on the other hand here am I sitting after half the morning, crammed with ideas, and visions, and so on, and can't dislodge them, for lack of the right rhythm. Now this is very profound, what rhythm is, and goes far deeper than any words. A sight, an emotion, creates this wave in the mind, long before it makes words to fit it.
The key in life isn’t to escape routine but to create one we love—one that makes us walk around with a smile.
