The answer is–everything seems easy. Milt and I have been having so much fun experiencing this kind of flow. Oh, I don’t mean we aren’t working hard–we are. Milt sunk some poles in the ground today (he has been dying to sink a pole) for a small showerhouse. We have no running water so it will be another creative endeavor. That is what is so interesting about our adventure here this summer. We just name something we need and then we see what is available to make it happen.
Last night I was on the Lakeland Public Television news with The Bead People. My niece, Lizzie, went over to the reporter at Ribfest and told her she should do a story on us–and they did. And Saturday I’ll be at Book World in Bemidji with a Bead People event. And today I picked five, gorgeous quarts of wild blueberries to take home with me. And I am just getting started with picking berries although my backside says I over did it for this moment.
I am beginning to really contemplate the idea of living my life totally in this flow. If it isn’t easy–it isn’t right. Easy means things flowing together, meeting the right person at the right time, having links and synchronicity on our side. I don’t want to do a single thing because I “should”. It seems to rob my spirit of something important, something lively and moving.
I have a feeling that when we go home and dive back into our “real” lives we may discover it was not so real after all. We may discover that packing a lot of stuff in around us is a diversion from real. We may discover that spending too much time worrying about money and things is not what we want. We may have an auction:)
I took some pictures of my berries and the berry patch today. I know I need to get better at including those images and I SHOULD figure it out–maybe later.
Thanks for tuning in.
