"Be Gentle..."

"Be gentle with yourself.
You
are a child
of the universe,

no less
than the trees
and the stars.
In the noisy confusion
of life,
keep peace
in your soul."
- Max Thimann

Distractions....

         My life has been filled with them lately. I have been letting these ridiculous distractions get in the way of what really makes me happy. Even tonight, I am still letting the smallest of things get in the way of what I should be doing. I came out to Starbucks to finally get some writing down. Two hours later and I am just now starting to write. What have I been doing for 2 hours.... distracting myself. I worked a little on designing  my blog, I have been chatting on Facebook, editing some pictures... but up until now, no writing. Lol, why do I do this to myself? I find myself having more and more to say each day, but I seem to be saying less and less at the same time. Writing used to be one of the main things that brought peace to my life... it helped me to sort out the many random thoughts running through my mind and helped me in discovering who I am. But, as of lately, my pen rarely hits the paper (ok, so I do most of my writing on my computer, but you get the point).
        I think I have been hiding my mind from the world for a little bit. I have so much to say, that if I start talking, it will all come out. Its a lot to process. My mind has been running in about 12 different directions over the past month and I am just trying to keep up.  But, as I sit here and think about it, I decide that its ok to take a breather from the stresses of reality every now and then. Its ok to be a little distracted in life... I think it is just time that I get back to the distractions that are good for my heart...
         This past Saturday I went to the Atomic Holiday Bazaar . I felt like I was on a cloud. I was surrounded by so many creative people... people who channel their passions... their laughter.... their heartache... into what they create. I looked around at all of these artists, men and women, and they all looked so inspired. It was one of THE most inspiring moments of my life... I could feel the creative energy being channeled back into my soul. As I walked out of the event a million and one ideas rushed through my mind... new and not so new... All I can say is that I am so excited about what is to come in the near future. Getting back to creating and writing... getting back to what makes me truly happy... getting back to me.
