I get tired of news now. Hype and sensation and only PBS news can give me something to think about, generally most of it seems almost irrelevant to me, negative energy that causes stress. I need less stress.
I like reading blogs of other folks out there that really have something to say about their life, thinking out loud. Some write really well. I know I don't usually, have to edit and correct voice and tense and type-os. My key board sucks, always leaving out letters and switching letters. I have to work at it, but it falls into the category of creativity. Even if it's only brain drain. So if I feel self conscious and vain, well, there are lots of others out there doing the same thing. We find our selves and similarities, feel humble, excited, and it yet looks good.
Oh, and by the way, if you don't know about morning pages, look up Julia Cameron's book "The Artists' Way" as it has lots of suggestions for why we get stuck, and it is available, or was, on cassette, probably now on CD. The tapes are a favorite of mine because you can listen to her voice and drive and consider things, all at the same time. I found them helpful. Julia is funny and interesting. Writing really works, too, dealing with any thing that seems to get in the way. It's not so new, a diary or a journal functions that way, like talking to myself, I get to express feelings, reach understandings about my self.
(And if you don't believe in a universal soul as in the universe has energy and consciousness, consider the universal soul is now on the internet in the form of all these blogs people are doing.)
