ebb and flow*

It's funny the ebb and flow here
Sometimes I just flow with words, photos, ideas
Other times I'm sitting silent not knowing what to say, what to reveal, what to show

I have been making lists, contacting people, making some things happen in my life and connecting with dear friends

My minds been racing from here to there and I have so many balls up in the air I can't believe I'm actually learning to juggle

But then the weekend comes and I somehow get stopped dead in my tracks and nothing moves
Time stands still but doesn't

I want to slow down but don't know how
I want to relax and enjoy the time but don't know how
I want to keep on going full steam ahead but don't know how to do that either
Ying
Yang
Round and round we go...

A while back I used to practice bikram yoga. There were times when I would show up DETERMINED to relax (so very far from zen!)...only to have an unsatisfying 90 minutes because my head was so full of randomness. I couldn't slow down and clear my mind, yet I desperately needed to.

As you said it's an ebb and flow. As well as a balance, one that I always need to be aware of in order to prevent from slipping backwards.
