“running from something was normalized. It’s the act of running itself, not the particular thing I am running from. This too is a pattern. Present and still, or running. “ This and some other insights of yours in this piece help me understand some patterns in my life. Thank you! A wise piece of writing.

In your writing, especially in this article, I remember why I love journaling so much. Here you had me thinking about my "desk" which isn't one at all. Two white folding tables hold what now looks like chaos, no thanks to tax season. Dale says my over-stuffed office is because if my many interests and lack of focus. I agree, and kindly embrace whatever project I'm into this week. I'd like to learn to be comfortable at my tables, and you've prompted me to ask why I'm not! Thanks Mary!
