"I am rooted, but I flow." --Virginia Woolfe
The Place Where I Write
"Sometimes I can't find tape to save my life, but I have all of these other objects always at my fingertips, and it is in the midst of these juxtapositions, this disorder and uncertainty, that I write. Not only does being neat and organized take time, but a tidy environment makes me feel compelled to have tidy thoughts. And never do they come that way. The disorder is freeing; may it all come any which way. May I dip into the sea of disarray and pluck out the objects that gleam in the light of the present. May I keep that which is important and push aside the rest for another day." To author Yelizaveta Renfro, everything is temporary, and she writes in the ever-changing home of "right here, right now."
BE THE CHANGE
Do not wait for everything to be perfect, permanent and neat. Bloom where you are planted, and start doing what brings you joy in the shelter of the present moment.
