WordPress playing funny buggers with me on my computer is making me feel like my head is in a vice at the moment combined with other frustrations. When I get the shits a piece I read recently on anger comes to mind saying its only a secondary emotion. Never the less the desire to be fully alive and expressing often meets blockages in my life, fear being a primary one. Opportunities come and I falter and second guess everything. Body symptoms possibly from old trauma make me feel I am still stuck or trapped and fill my head with darker imagining than necessary.
Thank God for this lovely community on WP I was just out at the shops having a coffee and getting groceries when beautiful notifications came through expressing love for my poems. I’m constantly surprised by this. My drafts folder currently has about 80 items in it that havent yet seen the light of day. I’m constantly reigning my self in, maybe its the British in me. I was just reading a chapter in Notes from a Small Island by Bill Bryson and he spoke of this English tendency to reign in desire and impulse..wish I could kick it gleefully to the kerb to be honest.
Anyway here I am still alive and breathing longing to get a passport and jump on a plane to somewhere most mornings lately. Or have a friend I could call to say…..”wanna go out and get a pizza and go dancing?”. So so so longing to come more fully alive I feel like I’m gonna burst. Let it begin with me helps me to remind myself I am the one that needs to keep reaching for new life instead of just sitting around waiting for it to happen. π
I know what you mean about WP.
I love it so, but sometimes it pulls a stunt that leaves me going WTF? Like, it will tweak something and leave me unawares until I use or need it. Ugh. But overall, won’t complain. Much. π
And the draft folder . . it’s like the old storage unit I used to have where I would visit and find things that I had completely forgotten I had! From time to time, I pull something from my draft folder and use it. I should have a schedule for such things, but hey.

Awww I love that idea of the old storage unit but a ‘virtual’ one. I am sure there is a time to for things locked in to be freed. For me I get courage when someone likes what I write which isn’t great for me being self validating but there you go.
Yep WP is doing a bit of a number on me right now but maybe its something to do with my computer as typing on my cell phone is working fine.
Lots of love, Marc β€
