Three Things — On My Mind

Sometimes it’s hard to know what to say to someone when they’re in grief, hardship, mid-serious illness, or otherwise. I experienced this the other day with a friend of mine whose son has an illness she’s virtually on call for 24/7. It had been a rough night in their house. With flaming red (gorgeous hair) I told her “I don’t know what to say other than you’re a Red-Headed Unicorn.” Because she is. She swoops in like a mythical creature and deals — all day long.
The weekend before Thanksgiving and I know it’s been said time and again, but I’m legitimately surprised by the calendar. Of how it sped past. The days slip by like attempting to hold water in my hand. There one moment and magically gone the next.

Today, my birthday, serves as my personal New Year. As it does every year. I think of it as bench mark. January 1st means little to nothing to me. Rather than writing useless resolutions on a cold day in January, this is the day I take stock. Of where I’ve been and of course, where I’m going. But not with little goals and tasks abandoned by February, but with electric energy swirling around. Like I’m a character in Hocus Pocus, conjuring, all crazy eyed.

I’ve been hitting it hard this week and going in a million different directions. More than a few days I’ve been at the computer by 7 am. Which usually makes me giggly and overtired by 8 pm. I think it’s mental exhaustion more than anything else. We’re moving back to Italy in January (which has been the plan all along), but all of a sudden time feels short.

One. This —
I’ve been meditating regularly for a month now. Haven’t missed a day. Which is notable. Well, notable for me. Rather than me tell you to do it, to just meditate — I’ll share what one of the results of this daily occurrence has done for me. Ideas pop-up more often and I’m more prone to act on them. Creative and awesome ones. Rather than dismiss them as a “Oh that won’t work, or I’ll do it later.” I carry them out. I send the email, I take the chance, and make the call to a friend I haven’t talked to in awhile.
