Thank you Lisette - I really enjoyed having your music as a timer, it was just really wonderful to write to. Per usual, with anything you prompt in my life, 5 seconds in I was like "ah ha!" lol. The title of my piece is "Moving towards something to explore." Thank you for spending the time to make these posts and share you're stories. I truly perk up when I get the push notification saying that you've made a new post. Loving it. Loving you. :) -anna

The Wheel Goes 'Round Again

Something here so soothing-- relaxing into the rightness of a wheel's revolution. Not "caught in a cycle" but knowing that's what wheels are built to do: they go round again and again and again.

"My lens is my lease."

This title emerged from the idea and reality of personal reflection. No matter the temporal direction I choose to focus on, I deepen my sense of the present moment. How I view where I am in every 'now' also directs how I continue on a certain path or move to a new one. While this is a personal sense, and written in first-person, I feel that the deepening through this exercise of self-reflection is universal. There's a wee bit of word association in there as well—on reading your share about irises and the prompt, my mind's eye pictured a lens.

Ah ha! The iris! The lens! Love this word play, Miles. I'm in to this idea of the "lease" on the "now"...

Me too, as if we're renting these bodies for a bit. And, depending on what you believe, when the lease is up, there may be opportunity to re-up on the lease with new equipment. Hopefully not site unseen, lol.
