The upside of being a daily writer is getting the incredible opportunity to step back a few chapters or decades and see how far the mind body and soul have grown. The downside is having to endure what each were forced to walk through while pushing their journey toward this present place of now. We're all creatures of habit. If something gets twisted we'll usually act it out the same way. But what if the dot on the map becomes a newer set of seeds planted within a different layer of soil? It's perfectly everyday to plant the tiny things and move forward, totally forgetting the physical steps and or attempt. But as a daily writer there's a documented dot on the map. A place not necessarily designed for change but rather an open window that simply gives you peace of mind. A couple of years are pressed into the history books and you return to that page. Not because you're snooping on yourself. It's just happens. That dot on the map says more about you today by way of how far you've grown or have stayed away. Head doctors endlessly try to get their patients to write stuff down. Throw it away then take on the day. With so many distractions it becomes too easy to get sidetracked by other things and demands. The idea of wanting to take shelter or grow gets lost in the center of a crumpled up sheet of thoughts now sitting in a landfill. Try daily writing. Open your path. Teach your inner self that you aren't the one causing the troubles. Learn to work as a team and grow in ways that a tiny dot on a map kept alive in a book with so many darn pages.
