There's nothing worse than reading a book but not really "listening." I've been reading the same book for months and I could barely tell you what's going on. I'm listening to another one while working out, and I could offer next to nothing in a conversation about it. It's hard to let yourself be in the moment with anything (a book, a movie, a conversation, etc) when your priorities are set by anyone but yourself. Those were some wise words.Katie Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14459029822199929772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4329169694442536510.post-48076531236159275462014-01-30T08:19:20.915-08:002014-01-30T08:19:20.915-08:00Thanks so much, Pam!

You are ce...Complaceny is the worst possible evil. You are certainly not complacent! It is always a good thing to question yourself--am I doing the right thing? Can I do it better? Only by walking down many avenues, do you eventually find the perfect lane for yourself. Write if it makes you happy. Don't give a hoot if 2 or 2,000,000 people read what you write. Write when you have the time for it-when you have something to say--when it comes easily. Priorities are funny things--you often feel they are not mandated by you. In reality, if you are truly passionate about anything, you can carve out the time to do it. By the way, the most indulgent and self-satisfying thing I did during the holiday season was to sit down, tune everything else out, and read a book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4329169694442536510.post-50522194548854395402014-01-29T19:19:56.160-08:002014-01-29T19:19:56.160-08:00Don't stop!
