It feels constricting. We are so much more than what we "do" at work. I love how you share your days, there are little bits of magic and beauty everywhere! xoxomandy l. smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465284512439738872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-5137620914377063182014-08-28T06:50:17.329-05:002014-08-28T06:50:17.329-05:00okay, Blogger...i'm going to try this one. mor...okay, Blogger...i'm going to try this one. more. time. (clearly the Overlords know that i've cleansed them from my life and so thwart my every effort to commune in their dominions)<br /><br />first - the hummingbird! aren't they tiny bits of magic? we have a few that visit our coneflowers and the hanging basket of fuschia on the front porch...they're so cartoonish, the way they hover and flit about. every year i think i'd like to get an official feeder, but then every year i forget. perhaps this year, will be the year that i remember!<br /><br />i think i've abandoned all ideas of 'work' over the summer....and the thought of resuming into some semblance of order in September doesn't exactly fill me with delight. oddly, my days seem to be stuffed full. full of what? home, hearth, books, art....things that, to the Busy World, might look a lot like loafing. or being house-wifey. or some such label that tends to diminish the act of living an engaged life. <--- hmmm....some lingering resentments over being misunderstood, there. <br /><br />so perhaps this occasional thought that we need have something 'to show' for our efforts [which are mighty and rich and full of juice] is just the last trappings of our old lives being shed. i'm sure, if not for the words of the colleague, you would never have even considered that there ought to be something 'more'. i know i rarely consider it....sometimes getting jolted out of my happy bubble by some passing comment or idea....;)<br /><br />oh, so much to chat about....methinks a giant vat of tea will be required!<br /><br />xoxomelhttp://www.inkblotkingdoms.comnoreply@blogger.com
