“Claim your space. Draw a circle of light around it. Push back against the dark. Don’t just survive. Celebrate.”
Working from this inspiration this morning, I realized (again) that this is what I do each day in The Scrib.
This practice of writing each morning has saved my life. I know this.
But I don’t often CELEBRATE it.
Or even acknowledge how important it is. In fact, I often denigrate it. Thinking that if only I worked 1/2 as many hours a week on “real writing work” I would be … what? So much farther …AHEAD?
Ahead of what?
Things I ponder.
Happy scribbling, all.
go easy ~p
