and it seems that it plays tricks and turns it all around and leaves me speechless. Now, those that know me, would say leaving me speechless is not something they would agree with as it seems I always have some opinion or another.
Lately it seems that no one thought is clear and that thought brings up another thought and by then one has lost the original thought. What is this "monkey mind" trying to do? Perhaps it is time to just take a deep breath, exhale, and reverse directions. By trying to do too much one accomplishes nothing.
A walk in the woods, along a stream or just down the sidewalk may be what is in order here. Starting out with no perceived notion or destination in mind, and just allowing whatever enters the mind to stay awhile and figure it all out.
What artistic endeavor is next? Who knows. At this point if a brush were put to canvas it would probably be just a bunch of scribbling--or doodling--hey, that gives me an idea, perhaps a little zentangling (oh gosh, does poor Webster even
know that word?) but, I digress--really need to get out and take that walk.
How do you handle your "monkey mind"?
Stay tuned.
