*for the spirit of the holidays and mindful observance by reading Dana’s latest noticing journal.
*for remembering what is important by relating to Molly’s post about reality/fantasy.
*for two weeks of creative work instead of teacher work by drafting five poems in a new series using lyrics from “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” as starting points for love poems.
*for time with family – tomorrow with the whole crew at my mother’s house then Christmas Day with my two men at home, complete with morning church service, Christmas brunch (with real bacon!), and gifts of both the material and the emotional sort.
Hope that all of you are making way for something wonderful as well.
Donna, I am touched that you linked to my post. And Molly’s post is very entertaining.
Yes, a break in teacher-work is so welcome! Glad to hear of your writing and inspirations, Donna.
Happy Holidays, Hannah! Hope you are enjoying a break as well. I am planning to try the exercise you posted today while I am home -I’ll let you know how it goes.
