Our Love is Here to Stay

Posted by on 1 Comment

Our time in this universe is limited.  We are just a blink.  Humanity is just a blink.   When our civilization dies out, I imagine the Earth as a huge ball of love.  As if our lives have burned up, leaving a smoke of love.  After all this, our love is here to stay.

I know that when people die, it is their love that remains.  The happy memories and feeling of happiness and love are what’s left of my grandparents.  Bach left his sonatas, also full of love.  Artists leave their love on their canvases.  Parents leave their love in the children.  Anyone who has ever made anything is adding to that smoke of love.

Sure, there’s war and hatred, in the world and in our lives.  I get that.  But, does any of that last?  Does it have to?

Let’s just do the love.

Discipline and Creativity

Posted by on 2 Comments

So, I don’t know if anyone noticed, but I sort of stopped doing my weekly writing schedule a few weeks ago.  I liked the discipline of having a different kind of post every day of the week in theory.

In reality, it sort of stifled my creativity.  I would have a post on my mind, and didn’t feel like I could post it until the right day.

So, I stopped.  No one was making me do things a certain way, so I stopped.  I’ve had a lot more fun writing and keeping up with the blog (for the most part).

Having the framework of parenting, eating, creating, learning, giving thanks still works for me, and I still like thinking and writing within these categories.

But, now, I’m back to subbing more often, so I’m not sure how well I’ll keep up with the blog.  That’s where the discipline comes in…

So, keep checking back, I’ll keep posting.  I have some great ideas for future posts, and I hope to get to them really soon!
