It's a good thing time is an illusion...

It's a good thing time is an illusion because a lot of it has gone by since I last updated this blog!

At least, that is, "updated" in terms of typing text into a box on my web site. In terms of writing a blog post in my head while driving or walking or weeding the garden or standing in the shower...
...I do that almost every day.

An art teacher I had in high school once told me, "Never paint in your head. What you finish in there will never make it onto a canvas because there will be no need." His words come to mind as I think of all the blog posts that streamed out of me into the ether and perhaps landed on someone else's site via the collective unconscious creativity matrix we get any kind of art from.

Maybe I can do what Tom Waits does, according to Elizabeth Gilbert's TED talk about the nature of the Muse. When he gets given a song while driving or in some otherwise-upredisposed-to-writing-it-down position, he politely asks The Muse to hold that thought until he can get to his notepad. And s/he does. Great TED talk. Check it out HERE.

And while I have you in the mood to check things out, why not take a few minutes for some very funny, thought-provoking provocativeness about spirituality. I love when wisdom comes wrapped in laughs. If you do, too, you'll enjoy this post from a recent discovery of mine, JP Sears...

    Hi everyone and welcome to my first blog. As a screenwriter in Hollywood for over 20 years, I was too busy writing for a living to jump on the blogwagon. Now that I've diversified and channeled my energies into a wider range of pursuits, my keyboard isn't getting the workout it used to get -- so I thought maybe it was time. That and the fact my journey towards mindfulness has suddenly gotten rather public with the completion of my app, Remindfulness. This blog is going to be my own personal mindfulness diary, nothing more and nothing less. Because really I'm not sure there's anything more important -- though EVERYTHING SEEMS more important when it comes down to whether to take those 10 deep conscious breaths or interrupt that resentful thought and replace it with a loving thought. I've been attracted to spiritual ideas my whole life and felt the rapturous expansive joy of moments of Oneness...(a few of them, not many, I will be honest) while reading an enlightening book or meditating on a new concept. But integrating what I am learning into my real, daily, brush your teeth, pay bills, procrastinate exercise, life -- that's an whole other thing. That's what I'll be writing about. That journey. And I'd love to hear about yours.
