Stormy Weather
“I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m leaning to sail my ship.” Louisa May Alcott
It’s not stormy weather around here, it’s actually beautiful but there are so many fronts of action (like there always are, she says to herself) and I’m just running here, and jumping there, and ending my days spent. But last night we started watching Amreeka and I actually can’t wait to get back to part two (oh, the days when you could watch a movie straight through, she says to herself) and in between I’m reading Alex Baldwin’s Go Tell It On the Mountain and Michael Montlack’s Cool Limbo. And last night made these tasty red lentils with chilies and shredded kaffir lime leaves. Yum!
Oh, and I forgot raising the most adorable 2 year old in the world!
So I’m not in the midst of a storm, I think I’m smack dab in a circus and I’m on the wheel spinning and spinning.
Did I mention I forgot to meditate this morning? Rushing to get to work. Now that is a big sigh.

Even though you’re “rushing” to get to work, it sounds close to “simplicity” (as in natural) to me.
