For years, I had the practice of writing my dreams in the morning as soon as I awoke. I fell out of the habit over the last few years. I decided to begin practicing again this week.
This week I feel more alive, relaxed, and present than I have in a long time.
Still, it’s Thursday, the day I was born, and I get the chance to step out of my everyday life and remember—I’m ALIVE!—while I dog/house sit for some dear friends in Scottsdale.
Oh wow! Today is Thursday! Time for Born on a Thursday #8. I have been keeping a low profile this week – a lot of changes, a lot of clarity, and a lot to think about. Plus, I’ve been working a lot. My toe still hurts. I smashed it two weeks ago and haven’t had […]
