Friday night, we meet again. For the first time in months, Friday night feels spacious, I suspect because my travel schedule is very light between now and my next run on the burn service. The idea of being home and managing my projects from home...well, it sounds pretty amazing right now. Feeling pushed, pressured, and almost overwhelmed has been such a way of life that I'm very cognizant of how good this feels. Don't worry, I'm making sure to appreciate it.
Today I am trusting that the next 6 weeks will be magical, magnificent, creative space for me and that I won't get bound up in things that I'm less passionate about. Who wants to help me remember that?
Today I am grateful for serendipity and circumstance. I frequently feel like I've just tripped into this amazing place that is my life, and I often wonder how it is that I'm this lucky. Put that together with some humorous coincidences in the last couple of weeks involving friends who have no overlap in their orbits in my life, and I realize that life may indeed just be a series of big, happy collisions. And I'm okay with that.
Today I am inspired by the concept of simplifying, of less being more. A great entry this week from Eric Barker covers the "Laws of Subtraction." I see #6 in my future starting this weekend, and I'm looking forward to it. I used to be better at this, and it's a skill I need to regain. Which reminds me...I'm thinking Sunday will be devoid of work as well. Because I can.
Have a beautiful week, friends. I know that I will.
