This is my big digital bucket to hold all the waters of my world. Words and images humbly submitted.
Hitting that reset button. Don't snooze on this one. Don't confuse temporary coping or self-care for long-term solutions. Embrace the work of it, the craft. Inspiration without work is merely dreaming. Inspiration doesn't visit the lazy. Look at this guy. He's all in. Be more like this guy.

Q. posted this today and I sorely needed this reminder. I liked this in particular: "Ironically, the guilt and frustration we feel from not starting is often worse than the pain of actually doing work."
It's too easy to get caught up in the day-to-day busy-ness of life and not sit down to do The Big Work.
Back home now and I'm still energized by the retreat. Time to just sit down and do the work. Excited to have a game plan. But will miss that Carmel air and the retreat "mascat" Bagheera.
The greens and blues. The air that doesn’t burn or hurt. The support, the encouragement. This is what we came for.
