Dialogue with my muse |
JOE: Good morning Calliope. CALLIOPE: Good morning Joe. How are you today? JOE: Fine. I'm off to a good start. CALLIOPE: Tell me about it. JOE: I have been thinking that it's time to consider where my life is headed and whether I'm satisfied with my direction. CALLIOPE: How far did you get? JOE: Not very far other than having the idea. I thought about it this morning and remembered the guided journal, What Really Matters to Me by Robyn Conley-Weaver. CALLIOPE: Did you complete the assignments? JOE: No. I just started the journal. I think that was when I switched to a regular journal and eventually to our conversations. CALLIOPE: So now what? JOE: I will review the journal. I think it might give me a framework for re-evaluating where I stand right now and where I'm headed. CALLIOPE: Sounds like a good idea. Why now? JOE: Several reasons. I am planning a move fairly soon and I have been weeding out the detritus of my life- deciding what to keep and what to discard. That has brought to mind reconsidering my life direction. I also feel a little unfocused and sometimes overwhelmed by my daily activities. Time to get organized. CALLIOPE: I'm all for it. JOE: I plan to start this morning. I'll keep you posted. Talk with you tomorrow. |
