Look Out the Window

Wherever you are, look out the window. Let your eyes rest on what you see, taking notice of the general, overall picture. Now, take a visual inventory of everything you see. Just write them down, like a list. Notice as much as feels comfortable. Take a moment, draw a line.

Ok, now, write down what you don't see.

Welcome to the page. These pages are yours. Studies have shown that those who write about their thoughts and feelings are better able to deal with stress and pain. Writing one’s thoughts has been found to be soothing, like petting a fluffy dog or gazing at goldfish in a tank.Write anything. Punctuation is not critical. Grammar is not an issue. Talk to the page. This is your time.The rules are that there are no rules. Memories and thoughts bubble up at the most unexpected times, and for the most unexpected reasons.Take a deep breath. Breathe. Put a pen or pencil in your hand. Put your hand on the keyboard of your computer, and what you see is what you get. Put words to paper……Or don’t. The following is a collection of quotes that I have found inspiring. And funny. And sad. They are listed, so that you can read them and respond. Without pause or plan, just read the quote, then respond. Put pen to paper, or napkin, or restaurant menu, or paper place mat. It’s the writing that counts.
