Staying In the Moment

Quote of the Day:
“When I’m writing a book, I’m writing out of my own search. . . What I get I get via intuition, feeling. I sit with a blank page. I try to focus my whole being on what it is I’m searching for. Then that becomes the focus of attention in my whole life.”
– Linda Leonard

It pays to stay in the moment because then you don’t miss those precious moments.
My aaah moment came when I was meditating and Max, my older fur child, curled up in my lap and took a nap. Not long the sun came around and made it too hot for Max. It sure felt good though to have that little body in my lap. I know I had a smile on my face.
Another aaah moment was getting some house work done. To think, I don’t have to think about it again for another week. How easy is that?
Besides Max, the best part I kept to my painting on Sundays. Last week’s piece of art I completed yesterday. I feel disappointed about it because it didn’t come out the way I saw it in my head. Plus, I’m not sure the paint was working right. A little dust I don’t think helped at all and maybe even on my brushes. I may have to discuss this with the Divine Ms. M and read what she has to write about this.
But, I did begin another painting. Ideas are tumbling around in my head. When I look at it face forward, I’m not sure I like it. However, looking at it the mirror I see other ideas. So, who knows what will come out tomorrow?
