Once in awhile it’s nice to have a quiet day. A day in which the thoughts that cross your mind don’t stick and conceptualize – much the same way clouds fleet across the sky, not hanging around to cause any weather.
Today was spent washing and folding clothes, paying bills, getting hair done and doing all the last minute things that needed to be done as I get ready to leave tomorrow on my two week NY/Florida adventure. Tomorrow I’m getting my boots back out to brave the snow in upstate NY, before leaving for Florida on Saturday with my dad and sister.
As I went about readying for my trip, thoughts drifted in and out of my mind all day washing it clean of such hard work and serious thinking left over from the weekend writing conference. The slate is ready to be imprinted with new thoughts and experiences to be gained on the road. It’s good to relax your mind and not hold onto anything in particular. Take a day and just let go of each thought – spring clean your mind…..see where it takes you….or doesn’t take you.
And so, as another day goes by, my bags are packed and I’m ready to go, and …I have written.
