Summary:

In which I ramble and decide on public posts.

Reflection:

Yesterday - a day. Not bad, relatively productive at work... did some things at home, straightened, wrote, read, had a good conversation... these things.

Entry:

I don't really know what I am going to write here... I don't really know or understand any of it, or know what it is all about or understand what these things mean... It is simple: I am not a bonafide or substantial writer... but I know what life is about, because I am living it. I know what the meaning means.

I had started this blog on blogger in order to ... in order to trace the arc of my life.. a storehouse for creative... etc. etc.

Then I moved to davebrey.com, then I moved to daboluv2.wordpress.com... these changes felt like growth but really, they turned out to be misdirection.... because the world, the internet, is giving me page views on nobushel.blogspot.com... does that mean I should move and cowtow to this space? Sure! why not?

Go where the audience is, don't have to hide in obscurity... but there is a lot on here, a lot of entries, a lot a lot of entries... 

Okay... that is what I will have to do - write a blog entry on here, because this is where my audience is, then cross post it to daboluv2.wordpress.com. that is acceptable. I can do that. I certainly can.

I'll just have to leave a little time at the end of my writing session in order to send this cross post like.

So, what sort of insight and clarity might I reach today? 

Constructive Living by David K. Reynolds.... what a great book! Definitely in my top 10... in fact, let me list out my favorite books, so I can remind myself:

1. A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle

2. The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle

3. Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman

4. Constructive Living by David K. Reynolds

5. Essentialism by Greg McKeown

Those are the books I continue to come back to.... The first two, by Eckhart Tolle, just over and over again add layers of meaning and insight to my life. I listen to the audiobooks constantly, and have re-read them several times... in fact, I should re-read A New Earth again soon.

I have another 30 minutes to write, read, whatever... I think I am going to continue writing... here there and everywhere... though I am physically uncomfortable... I will now move seats.

I have moved seats... it is a little more comfortable but not as much as I had hoped... oh well.

And now the dog is getting antsy and I have to shower in less than 10 minutes... such is life is life.

This writing can be very frustrating... I cannot absorb and live out the insights that I gather... I don't keep them in my mind, and so I cannot change my thinking to match... I have a hard time doing that at least.

Insight:

Did I learn anything this morning? I don't know, let me re-read.

No, I didn't really learn anything, other than that I want to continue writing posts, on this blog and copying it to another.
