showing up

 

"If you show up for your work day after day after day after day, you might just get lucky enough some random morning to burst right into bloom" - Elizabeth Gilbert

Not much is coming to me today. I am a little sleepy, a little lazy.

But I made this commitment. To just show up, write, and post every day for a month. And I need to prove to myself that I can do it.

It is like my own personal marathon. Not every step is going to be glorious and profound. Not even close.

But it is still a step forward. Still a step in the right direction.

And the jasmine is so intoxicating.

So here I am with every sparkly seed of my soul with nothing to say other than I am here. I am here, bleary eyed dreaming of caffeine but knowing it is not a good idea for me unless I want to be doing the hora in my bed at 2 a.m.

And today just showing up and being here feels like enough.
