Its the moments that lead to the exclamation point that give everything context. Live in the moment 🌼

There’s a touch of apprehension and romantic expectation that happens I’m familiar with. It’s that little rush of excitement that brings a flush to the skin. You’ve seized on that to me with this poem in all your details. Very well done.

Thank you. Romanticism is a dying art. Don’t know if I’m reviving it in the least, but I enjoy the effort.

I like what I do, but it is quite maddening to spend so much time at work. And really with work it’s all you work and hope to have a good day and maybe it will or maybe it will be shitty. Just feels so repetitive after awhile. Some days I just want to run off screaming.

It is not the work itself. It is how we are perceived of what we do.An economist for example does not become friend with someone that works at client service. Let alone have him a lover. We are percieved as work and that is quiet disturbing.

I find it disturbing as well. It takes the humanity out of the work place.

I have a collection of driftwood here with me. Because I couldn’t get over the beauty of something untethered just floating along, becoming weather & all the more beautiful for its age & travels. This one made me smile

Thanks Willow…..we are all just drifting and how pleasant that would be if we allowed ourselves the time to realise it.
