It is never a bad time to write.
Nearly everywhere you find yourself, in every situation, it is a good time to write.
Sometimes I write in my head, the inner narrative keeping me company when I’m alone. I may be observing the street scene in front of me or the memory behind me, yet I know this quiet contemplative “writing” soothes me, whether the leaves on the mulberry mask the sunshine or the fog covers my lawn with such density I can’t see the cars drive down the street, writing is my companion.
Its always been that way.
For some people it is a dog, a pet, a lover, a best friend, a workout, a walk, a drive, a shopping trip.
For me, it is words, strung together on a page or a document or even just in my mind.
Word-love – sometimes lust – attuned to the greatest good – it is never a bad time to write.
I’ve trained myself to focus and upon the light as I end my writing rather than any destructive elements that appear when we open our mind and heart onto the page. We process pain, grief and the elements of life some categorize as “less than” which I know to be, at times, filled with sacred bliss when one allows them space to move within.
Writing has helped me consistently to engage such experiences and heal, grow and morph through a partnership with love and gratitude amidst their experience rather than deny their experience.
It is never a bad time to write.
