Still-ness

Quote of the day:

Still… is when silence emerges and self stands clearly. MotherPie

Doing a blog stroll this morning I found at Ronni’s place a still list – inspired by MotherPie.

And now I, too, am inspired to still-ness:

  • Still loving Ada Mae
  • Still not done uncovering how I tick, and writing about it
  • Still glad I got all those degrees – my, what a journey that was!
  • Still enjoying the tall oak tree outside my living room window
  • Still doing the laundry, watering the plants, making the bed, cleaning the house
  • Still proud of my beautiful, sensitive and talented son
  • Still amazed at how still the early morning can be
  • Still hoping for redemption
  • Still grateful for the Jacobson family
  • Still wanting to lose a lot of weight
  • Still trying to get it right
  • Still failing to get it right
  • Still passionate about education and compassion
  • Still working with teachers about relationships
  • Still worried about child abuse
  • Still wondering how comfort numbs us into apathy
  • Still pleased that I live close to nature and the city all at the same time 
  • Still wishing there could be peace in our hearts, between brothers, in the world
  • Still thinking about politics, social justice, racism, feminism, socialism, and the kindness of strangers
  • Still dressing in clothes that I am not sure I like so much
  • Still cherishing my life partner, son, my friends in Israel, Europe, New Jersey, California, Philadelphia, Australia, Buffalo, South Africa, and especially the blogging community, and …

… Still … getting older …
