I figure if my #MM post is shorter than my usual ramblings, I've succeeded. ;) <br /><br />Anyway, loved your message about acceptance, in all forms. ;) loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725106142359702200.post-58691086178026171662017-02-23T08:27:15.331+13:002017-02-23T08:27:15.331+13:00It would do me well to remember this - accepting c...It would do me well to remember this - accepting certain things is not my forte.

I tried to keep myself to 10, but sometimes my sentences are short and then I'm down one. So like Different Shores, I just try to be briefer than usual. :) I love that freedom of giving yourself permission to just know a powerful short post is not in the works today, and so go out and do something fun on a glorious day. Although I think this post about letting go of what you thought you might accomplish when the timing's not right and you're just not feeling it is powerful in its own right. :)Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15868505568965284742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725106142359702200.post-47703398515717793732017-02-21T02:10:06.302+13:002017-02-21T02:10:06.302+13:00I have a bunch of topics pending, then I read some...I have a bunch of topics pending, then I read something or have something happen and all those get kicked to the curb, so to speak. I would prefer to have the Monday post ready long before Sunday night, but such is not usually the case. Which is why I don't make it <i>every</i> Monday.

But I also try not to submit a dense wall of text, as that's hard to plough through these days. So I make a tiny bit of effort to stay brief... I'm not sure I have anything today either. There's freedom in accepting that you're not going to write anything, yes. I've had writer's block for a while and also doubts about my subject matter. It's good not to feel stressed about having to slap something up; I suppose that's an advantage of not making a living from a blog... <br />Enjoy those nice things today https://differentshoresblog.wordpress.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/16936131757889957955noreply@blogger.com
