My brain is tired this week, anyone relate? For some reason, I thought launching The Truth Turned Upside Down series and writing Red Rock Redemption at the same time was feasible. This only strengthens my notion about the fleeting state of my sanity. However, I push on with the unconditional love of two, ying and yang pups!
I see this sometimes when I take walks, an owner with a large and small dog, walking unbalanced and happy down the sidewalk. My large dog is the kindest, most anxious of creatures; but to look at him might cause you a fright. He is HUGE and has a very loud bark when he decides to sound off. My little guy is dreadfully disobedient and believes himself to be quite intimidating, all eleven pounds of him.
The one thing they share in common is close proximity to me when tied to my computer, writing and deciding what to work on next. Just a brief stoke of their fur reminds me that this is not the big scary thing I imagine it to be, this new author role, this casting of stones in life’s stream. They are here and I am just me, still me but with a new endeavor. I hope that whatever you are miring in this week, you remember you are still just you, a great you that deserves to relax and just breathe. We are all about to begin, in the middle of, or wrapping up endeavors. We are here and greatly loved, that is enough!
All my best ~Penelope
