52 Weeks 500 Words
This is how it began: Justine (not her real
name) decided to write 500 words (or as near as), anything goes, per week for 52
weeks. She would then submit it for anonymous posting, via me, her friend.
Perhaps a pattern will emerge from her words, but at this stage it’s more an
experiment I have agreed to share in. I’ll attempt to draw conclusions at the
end of this. Stay tuned if this resonates with you.
Week 33
It’s Easter weekend and no matter how or what you believe
most of us have the relief of a long weekend surrounding us. A time to unwind,
not to have to rush to anything. A time for some of us (like me) to walk around
in pyjamas with crazy hair and not have to worry about it.
I’m not giving out lessons this week or offering insights
that have come to me. I feel sometimes life is so filled with potential lessons
and so much soul-searching that we tend to overlook the pleasure of simply
being. Of course, simply being shouldn't take away the need to act and think,
but should be regarded as a time to breathe. It is during these down times that
our minds, hearts and souls are able to collate all we have learned and put it
to us in a way we can accept. It gifts us the ability to streamline chaotic
thoughts, varied lessons and so forth and results in a simpler answer, so to
speak.
So, readers, friends, take these few days and, beyond how and
what you believe, use them well to simply be. I can almost guarantee at the end
of it you feel better about some of the things that have been plaguing you. Well.
That is my hope. At the end of this weekend I hope to have gathered some relief
from my own chaotic thoughts. I hope you do too.
Have a lovely Easter weekend!
