Am I giving time to what I really want to do with my life? I think so. There are so many things I want to do with my life. I don’t give equal time to them all, and sometimes they aren’t the priority I want them to be. Sometimes things I don’t want to do with my life press to the forefront! What do I want to do? Creating is what I love best, whether it is writing, photography or art, decorating, cooking, or thinking of new teaching methods, looking at the world in different ways, or understanding something clearly. To often mundane chores interfere. The dilemma is that I hate having a dirty house, or feeling disorganized, or not being prepared, so I forgo the creative activities; or perhaps I avoid them? Hmmm.

A Quotidian Inspiration
29 03 2012Children inspire me; their surprising and honest insights, their spontaneity, and their belief in themselves. Kids are proud of their work, love giving performances, and are brave in their willingness to wholeheartedly try something new. They’re so happy about themselves, and they rarely worry that maybe someone else is better, or maybe what they’ve done isn’t good enough. I want that joi de vivre again, that ability to be so happy with whatever I do, simply for the joy of having done it. The best lessons for a good life come from children!
