There Are a Thousand Thoughts

Lying within a man (being) that he does not know until he takes up his pen to write.  Wm. M. Thackeray.  And this gentleman never knew about blogs.  Things I get to do today often stir up phrases from "nowhere" that stick in my thoughts, ferment over time, and are the fuel for a perspective that fills my heart with joy.  To me focusing my time on thoughts  that are bubbling over with ease and delight creates a day (life) well spent.  Using the opportunity to craft these thoughts into words for others to read primes the pump for the other 999 thoughts to show up, shape up and shine.  I shall take up my "pen."

Brain Blog

Time to practice what I preach.  The only problem is that I can't remember what I said.  How do I get rid of the smell in the laundry tub drain?  What was used to protect the newly planted peas?

When my brain fails me going about the Things I get to do today, fortunately there's a back up.  On a brighter day, weeks, or a month, or a year before this blog contained a record of what was said.  So I type in the key words, and my memory comes up on the screen with several paragraphs and colored pictures to remind me how to do it.  I am so grateful.
