Writing for 5-10 minutes immediately reminds me that I prefer typing over writing. This may have to do with not being in the flow of writing with my hand any longer, like those long ago days in school when there were no computers and everything was handwritten. All those callouses and our fingers bent just so to hold a pencil at any given moment. Hand cramps. Yes, typing I prefer.
Free flowing typing allows for my all the emotions and thoughts that are floating around my head to flow out. It feels like a release in a way. I've been stressed out this past week, more then usual so this assignment was therapeutic. I always feel like one of those people that falls through the cracks of the system.
Some of my kids were sick this week which always makes for an interesting juggling game of figuring out how to care for them, get them to the doctors, getting myself to class, staying on top of homework, etc....
This week has been a good lesson for me in remembering to stay in the present moment. I have been working hard on remembering to meditate daily. The practice of meditation is really helping me to stay focused and calm no matter what storm I find myself in.
It sounds like a hectic week. Hope your little ones are doing better. It's good that you taking care of yourself.
