Carrot harvest time!!!
I took myself to the river today. Ate a peanut butter sandwich and a peach. The rocks and the water and the sky dissolved into one another. Said please and thank you. Had a cry. Got to witness a kingfisher fish. #themoonremembers
Filled notebooks. Printed pages. This is how I know I’m a writer. (And and artist. One of those notebooks is paintings and drawings). This right here is a dream come true. 🌻 I remember years ago reading something Alison Bechdel wrote or said in an interview about having stacks and stacks of filled notebooks in her work space. That she could look at them and know she was doing her work. I remember wanting that so bad. That feeling. That knowing. Today that feeling is here. 📓 It’s fleeting. This feeling of knowing and satisfaction. Some days I feel like an imposter, a failure, a never-gonna-amount -to-anything-so-why-botherer. 🧁 I get myself in that comparison mind. That striving mind. It’s a doozy. I’m working on it. It’ll never go away completely. 🐿 Do I want to publish my work? Do I want my words to be read? Hell yeah I do. I want my words to be read and feel meaningful to others. I want my words to be tools of connection and recognition and remembering ourselves back into being. I want to feel like I have something meaningful to offer. I want to feel received. 🌔 But this feeling right here, that I know I’m doing my work. This is it. I get to have that feeling today. Tomorrow, who the fuck knows. Come back to the work. 🏡 #themoonremembers
