Getting it Right
“Lying in front of the house all
afternoon, trying to write a poem.
Falling asleep.
Waking up under the stars.”—Jack Gilbert taken from nicolemgulotta.com
Now, that is the life. This quote lifted my spirits and gave me a vision of a place where I can find peace. I need a couple of these weeks of napping and writing poetry.
I’m feeling a little distracted from my writing lately, but I just need to remember that I am invested in improving myself and my community. This means that I am doing my part. And even if I spend the day napping and writing poetry, I’d still be adding goodness to this world. I always try to keep in mind that I can’t change the people around me, but I can change myself.
