‘Worry is simply a misuse of imagination.’
My son and my daughter-in-law sent me what may have been the most appropriate gift:
Two worry stones!
One for each hand.
Because I overthink (read: worry) that much.
So I’m a double-fisted overthinker now…going forward with the misuse of my own imagination.
I don’t think people have demons.
I think they have themselves and things they aren’t ready to be honest about yet.
It is not easy to come to grips with the fact that we’re capable of hurting people with the same instrument we love them with.
The heart is a hungry wolf
and it is made of glass.

Neil Gaiman has done it again – with some lovely words to ponder on this first day of 2017:
I would like to take a moment to wish all of my readers a happy, healthy and prosperous 2017.
May we all find the bravery we need to step forward into the darkness – together.
May we all find the joy that we are seeking in this world – together.

Yesterday was a difficult day.
I was very angry and insecure and thinking about the past, as the date – 14 November- has marked a reminder of a horrible low point in regards to my personal history in these last 5 years*
I was going to post a link for the curious…
but then I thought better of it, simply because it doesn’t serve any purpose for me to dredge shit up now, does it?
And then, this morning, this quote came across my media feed:
Thanks, Universe.

*Though, this time of year – in general – has always been a shitty time of year for me and my emotions.
Meanwhile, the Thought365 project has given me the gentle impetus to change that, so I thought I’d try it.
