Besides, sometimes even things we typically enjoy can cause major stress, it's up to us to determine the pace that is set.

Now I have to go google 'nebulous'... <BR/><BR/>Anne - tee hee, I rock :-) <BR/><BR/>Buddess - Deal!<BR/><BR/>Spookie - Yes I do. Now I just need to figure out what it is I <I>like</I> to do as opposed to what I do out of habit or obligation. Should be interesting.<BR/><BR/>Nomad - Cinderella has been noticeably quiet on the cake front. I'm hoping she'll get the urge to bake this weekend. Don't beat yourself up over not doing nanowrimo this year. Maybe we should start our own version of it? "International Novel Writing When And If You Want To". Hm, not so catchy...<BR/><BR/>Beads - LOL! Did you make the cake then? How was it?<BR/><BR/>Ben O - Killing motivation sort of defeats the object of the thing, doesn't it? ps I could never leave you guys ;)<BR/><BR/>Chitty - I'm thinking of doing the same thing with work. You know, not work for a while then when I'm ready I'll work that much better. Having some trouble selling the idea to my boss though.<BR/><BR/>Dawn - It's very true. I think the reason I feel better than I did is that I made the choice. Took my destiny in my own hands (so to speak, if a little melodramatic!)<BR/>xx<BR/><BR/><I>Thanks for your support, guys</I> :)Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158421102740382411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11797778.post-1163058565460304302006-11-09T07:49:00.000+00:002006-11-09T07:49:00.000+00:00Terri - there's a latent writer trapped in every A...Terri - there's a latent writer trapped in every Aries person so I totally know how you feel - as far as letting go, I agree ... I have come to think that when you let go, that is actually when you are most in control because you are making a conscious choice - the paradox of losing it to let go - when we are out of control that is when we are most in control ... maybe? I have this quote on the side of my computer screen - I LET GO OF THE NEED TO BE "ON" ALL THE TIME. <BR/>Take care. xoxDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07713535267887962588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11797778.post-1163054495270548642006-11-09T06:41:00.000+00:002006-11-09T06:41:00.000+00:00Even if you "let go" for a little while, the stori...Even if you "let go" for a little while, the stories will still be inside you.
