I write to know I Am

The following post is recycled. I happened upon it this morning and it seemed appropriate today to re-post. I have been evaluating my Purpose lately and bottom line is: I need to write. I have no choice in this matter, it is my calling, my need, my salvation. Denying it would be like dragging my … Continue reading I write to know I Am

Quoting Christina: We write.

What I think we are up to, we throngs of journal-writing pilgrims, is reclamation. We are searching for ways to reclaim a sense of place, a sense of empowerment, a sense of healthy relationship between our lives and our times. We look for whatever can help us make sense of the moment. We Write. (Christina … Continue reading Quoting Christina: We write.

Writing over my own fears

I recently wrote an article about writing through fear. I'm good at telling others how to use writing for their own healing and self-discovery but as the saying goes, "Physician, heal thyself."

Because I have been taking myself too seriously…

I realized something this morning. I miss writing. While I write something everyday - my journal, an article or just a facebook status (does that count?) - I miss what I do best (humble, I know): Write. I loved everything about blogging when I began writing at jlucymuses.blogspot.com. My days and activities were all potential … Continue reading Because I have been taking myself too seriously…

Steppingstones to a new life

Yesterday morning in my journal I wrote: I am blessed with abundance. I am blessed with the answer. I am a magnet to all the resources I need. What is the answer? I need to know what path to go down today. This morning I wrote: Oh, lawd! I feel like a puzzle piece just … Continue reading Steppingstones to a new life

Put the lime in the coconut

It finally turned warm (again) this weekend. Two weeks ago I got a sunburn, one week ago I was scraping snow off the car and today I am sitting by an open window trying to get some air while the sky threatens a thunder storm. That kind of dramatic weather change not only messes with … Continue reading Put the lime in the coconut
