How I am starting: December, a New Generation of #Reverb12 and with YOU!

My plan for this series of prompts is to write from them right before I go to sleep, almost like a closing written prayer for the day. Our Reverb12 host from Australia is Kat from I Saw You Dancing.

She asks:

How am I starting?

I am starting with an open heart and an open mind. I am starting with joy and hope.

I am starting with smudges of fear across my cheek. I am starting with tendrils of anxiety between my eyebrows.

I have been “reverbing” in some form or fashion since BestO9 I believe it was initially called. I really should go back and see what I said on Day One for the last few years. I have it all here – but you know what I just realized?

I am starting with a white canvas. With December  1, 2012 waiting for me to live my way to loving each question and reaching out to as many of you as I possibly can and hoping, praying, wishing you will reach back.

I am starting with a bucket of anticipation, lots of paints and crayons and fabric and pages from old books I have painted and are waiting for further reflection.

I am wearing a smock so my “regular clothes” won’t get dirty. My regular clothes in this exact moment are a nightgown and bloomers. I feel very Victorian. I plan to close each night with one of these prompts, since they are coming from Australia so they I am writing into the future, truly.

I am starting with walking shoes on my feet, a camera in my pocket and a pencil and notebook in my hands.

I am starting with you.

I am starting.
