Notes and the taking of.
Shedding light on a practice so mundane does have its benefits. For one thing, I’m writing more things down than ever before. The importance of my daily carry frees up the minutia in small morning moments and I exude focus instead of passively soaking in the cacophony of birds, people, inspiration. The day to day doldrums and in betweens, the beats and halts, jump starts and blind leaps of my life occur all the same as before, except with the opportunity to capture a moment or engrave the spoken words of otherwise forgotten others in the pages of a small notebook. Also grocery lists. A lot of grocery lists.
The spring begged near infinite questions of my first steps. The first of these will ring true over and over, not just here in this great city, but anywhere. Everywhere I’ll go till I can go no further - where to begin?
I’m going to use this notebook until the end of summer. By then, I might have an answer.
