Fear or love, baby?

The week started in quite a dark place both figuratively and literally, but I was proud of myself for hauling my be-hind out of bed, getting a suit on (for the first time in a long while) and heading into work for what turned out to be a busy, productive few hours.

I had a sneaky look at Blip and was taken with a haiku (?) that MsMun had shared - I hope she doesn’t mind me repeating it here - which helped frame some of my feelings:-

Let what comes come.
Let what goes go.
Find out what remains.

~Ramana Maharshi

This combined with the earworm of Louder than Words from Tick, Tick… Boom! by Jonathan Larson:

Fear or love, baby?
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words

~Jonathan Larson

Left me feeling a little reflective and inspired this evening, so I sat down and wrote for a little while. Nothing that will change the world, particularly insightful or will lead desperate bloggers of the future to quote me, more just writing for the love of writing. 

An unseen burden felt lifted from me once I had finished and lead me to question why I don’t do it more?

I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance

~Lin-Manuel Miranda
