Dear April,
I was wondering if I will continue this blog in this form. And the first answer that comes to my mind is yes, for questions of facility. Let’s face it: my London stay has given me extra work, and the rhythm is more intense than in Paris.
But some kind of update seems necessary.
Here is what I know you want to ask me:
a. how are you doing dearest one, how do you feel?
I am feeling well, but a little bit stressed. I know this is an illusion; do you hurry a flower to blossom? Take the time an orchid needs for the flowers.
b. Do you like being in London?
I do, I have come to love this city, although it doesn’t feel home yet. Although I am in touch with a lot of talented people, I miss a group of like-minded crazy individuals.
So, are you going to do something about it? Or just pretend this is fine?
I think I will do something about it. I will take initiatives.
c. Someone told me to ditch friend-enemies too. They cost energy.
How are you doing this?
By sending them love and not letting them to get into my space.
d. How are we doing in the love department?
I am kind of in love and I date a few people.
e. How are your projects?
They are doing well, I have been productive. But I need something to have more fun and relax.
What would do for my best friend in this case? I would take me out to do something beautiful.
And I would tell her all the nice things I believe about her.
Ok, I am doing it.
f. How about the different resolutions you have had? Cutting Sugar, etc?
For now I have limited sugar apart from a small bar of chocolate daily and one teaspoonful in the morning and I am happy with it.
g. Any specific project for the future?
Yes, to prepare for a Big Leap.
And I will use this blog for this purpose.
“I would take me out to do something beautiful.” Now that is a lovely ambition, to do beautiful things and make beautiful things and lead a beautiful life, and be beautiful. I think that’s what you–and I too–are aiming for. And you go through your life–now in London–looking for it, and I think one day will find it. And quite possibly realize you had it all along but hadn’t noticed.
Thank you dear David for all your wise comments! Yes, a Beauty-Full life is the objective. You are right, Beauty is us also, and we are creating also as we go along.
I’m noticing that once a person starts thinking of beauty–of what’s beautiful–the floodgate opens and most everything you think of then is beautiful. Thank you again for your wonderful posts.
Don’t cut on the chocolate. 🙂
