Words whizz round my head. Lists and must-do's, snippets of conversations from this morning, from last night, from yesterday, from whenever. Discussions with myself of things I must do and things to be done.
A cacophony of constant chatter and thoughts.
I find it difficult to calm and quieten the the words as they fly around, they show no mercy even when I am tired. And I hear them all.
This, on occasion, is a good skill to have, I can multi task at speed, think off the cuff, make it up as I go along, fly by the seat of my pants. At other times it is almost list-overload and some of the words fall out and get lost..........
I have started to practise the art of quietening the perpetual busy-ness going on in my mind. Now and then I have moments of strangely calm silence and it is glorious! But as soon as it happens and I register the stillness - whoops my brain launches itself back into is normal nattering and chattering self.
I must admit to feeling happier than I have been recently. Nothing has changed except me - and I am working on that change.
Now - if you'll excuse me, those lists in my head are actually shouting and I really, really must listen to them this time!!
It is nearly the weekend so here's wishing you a few snatched moments of 'me' time, with your book, your yarn, your garden, yourself - your life x enjoy
Enjoy your moments of quiet. xx
