days off are like chips. you can never eat just one chip. believe me, i’ve tried….who am i kidding, i havent tried, i embrace the chip bag and eat till the bag’s empty. it’s why i dont buy chips. okay it’s why i dont buy chips often.
i’ve been taking days lately – days to just be, to enjoy things, to see things differently. i’ve been wanting to just shoot more for me, no rules, no expectations, just me. and those days turned into a week and suddenly my writing felt neglected and strongly suggested i go to a “i cant just have one” anonymous meeting.
life is about balance and if i’m being honest, i suck at balance. but i’ve always very much so been an all or nothing sort of person so balance for me, it’s tricky. this does not come in handy while learning to surf. oddly enough, balance was my “theme” for 2012 – my goal as it were – to gain a better grasp on balance. so, while i learn to eat just a few chips, to relish in just a few days at a time, to make time to write, hopefully i’ll be able to keep the balance a bit better.
dwell in possibility…
