515 WAITING FOR READINESS TO HATCH ...

Hopefully, I'll soon resume posting stories in need of hatching
Though I fear you may give up on waiting for my return
Readiness has yet to ripen for reasons, which remain unknown
With respect for the fact that readiness cannot be hurried
I remain your friend, whose mind is still resting in quiet repose ...

513. PS AUTHENTICITY ...

PS
Ofttimes, we see what we want
Or we hear what we fear
However we all too rarely see or hear
Sincerity working to make itself clear
Why is that true?
 Insecurity sweeps meaningful connection into a cage and throws away the key
Hopefully, I've unmasked so many hot spots of insecurity
That self trust, born of authenticity
Will strengthen each story with insight into my integrity.
Your weary friend,
Annie

512. INSIGHT INTO MY CURRENT GROWTH SPURT

It's been nearly a year since the story-telling side of my brain felt free to speak. When the storyteller inside me chokes, my brain is diverting my thought processor to focus on personal growth.  This morning, insight hit, and I struck gold: I've been moving through a growth spurt. A lengthy growth spurt.  Actually, a humongous growth spurt. And as I don't want future growth spurts to grow so lengthy,  I've needed to see each step of it play out before my eyes.

As I'm pretty tired of thinking and am growting more practiced at taking good care of myself, common sense suggests taking a short break from blogging for this reason: Hopefully, while resting my conscious mind, my subconscious will work at reorganizing files inside my head. And perhaps, as a result of simplifying my filing system, my ability to retrieve and post stories will improve.

Please remember, this is my plan. However, plans change. So just as with climate, love and life, there are no guarantees.  With positive focus in mind, let's see what pops up on our screens when instinct suggests readiness for my return.

Until I see you next, thank you, my dear friends, for riding sidekick through the stormy side of my mind.  As it's not healthy to paddle around in the dark all alone, it's possible that I'd not have made it through this lengthy growth spurt without your presence, patience and support. Please check back from time to time, because I plan to reconnect and post more stories, very soon.

511 SORRY ABOUT POST 510

Post 510 was supposed to remain a draft. For some reason, I can not get blogger to separate that train of thought into lines. As I've not had time to post, lately, I'd no clue that post 510 had been published in its complex state. If you tried to make your way through it, my hat is off to you. :) Today, I removed it from published posts. When I have more time, I'll try to get blogger to cooperate. Thanks for your patience, Annie
