This week Jamie Ridler's wishcasting question to consider is...
What do I wish to take more time for?
I wish to make more time for my creative processes to be at the forefront rather than something I “fit in when I can”. Now, I realize my life has shifted rather drastically over the past few weeks and it won’t always be like this, but isn’t it funny how when we need our creative processes the most – in my case, for you it may be something else – we don’t have time for it?
I’ve been doing my morning pages, but my other art projects and even my writing has taken the back seat to everything else. I have said before, writing to me is like breathing. If I don’t do it daily, it gets harder to breathe in other aspects of my life, too.
I have been taking more photos, though not since Monday. My camera battery went dead so since Sunday I have had it sitting in the charger.
Even as I write I feel angry with myself ~ I haven’t taken photos because my battery is in the charger. How hard is it to take the battery out of the charger and put it back into the camera and take photos?
AND being angry with myself only takes more time and focus away from my creative process unless I am using that angry energy to bring a creative project to life.
So, beloved wishcasting friends, I wish to make more time for my creative processes to be at the forefront rather than something “I fit in when I can.”
Also – I will be traveling to visit my eldest daughter in Massachusetts starting tomorrow (Thursday) until next Tuesday. I am worried about leaving my other children home, even though they will be cared for well, I still feel anxious about it. Any positive thoughts or prayers their way, I would appreciate.
Thank you, always, for wishing alongside me.
