My mind is roaming and at the same time I'm required to keep focus and be busy with one project... I always quote the quote.. "Be careful what you pray for.. (By Larry Dossey, M.D. New York, N.Y.: HarperCollins Publishers, 1997). So, now there is some focusing required on my part...
It is fun to be busy with an intellectual challenge, focus on one idea and following a path that has been chosen for me in order to complete shakes me from a comfort zone. A shake-up that is long overdue!
In the meantime it is great to have the complimentary freedom to create (like writing or freestyle quilting). The potential and then finding the right combination to make a product possible.
Picture 1 has already been shaped. A touch and feel kind of design. Colours complementing, maybe even clashing...
Picture 2 is full of potential. What to make with a rich treasure of colours and textures. Just like ideas from writing.
Roaming minds...
There is an empty room in her head. She tried to fill it up with things, but it seems to grow its emptiness like multiplying bacteria, billions doubling exponentially. All the daily thoughts cannot fill this space, everyone else seem to be busy with their own things.
The room is no longer empty, but filled with continuous flowing ideas. To quell them, even in her dreams are almost a complete impossibility, except maybe, when she keeps her hands busy and her mind occupied with watching empty comedies or cooking soulful soups, reading loaned books, talking about political crooks, dusting un-used nooks, staring at strangers with vacant looks...
More next time...
