Doing and Being

Hello dear friends! I fully intended to do a post last Friday, but, the day escaped a little too rapidly. The daily drawings above would have been posted then, so I'm now playing catch-up....of course you can find all the dailies over at MissouriBendMusings. Maybe the reason I didn't post is that I'm finding that I'm spending a little more time "being" rather than "doing" when I'm not at work in the library. I have realized how "on the go" I always feel, as if there are never enough hours in the day (which, as we all know, there just aren't!), but that if I don't take time to "process" experiences, I'm out of sorts and kind of exhausted. Just a gentle reminder to myself that being is as important as doing.  I spend time now reading on either the front porch, which is sheltered from the wind, or on the back deck looking out over the river. For me, reading comes under the heading of "being," as I can go at my own pace and savor it all very slowly. So, as soon as I finish this post, it's back to "being" out on the deck....with my wonderful husband, a glass of wine and my latest book! Cheers....but before I go, the most recent dailies are now in the shop and here, for a quick peek!  For other views and details, you are welcome to visit MissouriBendMusings. Have a great week and many thanks for the continued support and cheer coming from all corners of the earth!!
