Think... well?

The moonlight came through

without even bothering to knock

The moon was huge and overpowering

it wouldn't be denied or dismissed

But somethings in life are more obscure

point of view

perspective

context

attitude

We can see our own

but seeing another

is like hunting for snipe

trying to catch a tornado

watching water boil

Clap three times

Turn in a circle

Tap your Heels

There's no place like home.

There's no magical word.

There's no potion or spell.

It's a choice.

The sun rose in the morning

visible and making life visible

the moon showed itself

the sun showed everything else

The chapter this week was about thinking well. It gave a 5 step process to solving problems. I didn't like the list because I know my limitations, but that doesn't mean I can't work on being better. Too often I am the moon, sure of myself and what I am doing with no concern for others. I want to be more like the sun, and shine light everywhere. I want to see others. I know that there is no magical formula, superb checklist, or order of steps that will make everything go smoothly. I want to know that each situation is it's own, with it's own outside forces, ebbs and flows, personalities and baggage. I want to face each problem not as a solution to be found, but as life to be lived.

Maybe it's all semantics, I'll give you that.

But sometimes what we are looking for is exactly what we will find.
