♥ I Must ♥
& then, there are times in this 10 year trek called blog, where I sit in the quietness of the a.m. and ponder the what ifs of placing a proper THE END to this L O N G line of words
& not in a grumpy !!! I QUIT !!! huffy, puffy humph (although I’ve experienced a few of those days too).
No, this tips more to the side of hmmm. Just hmmm.
I stare out my window, I reread paragraphs and poems, I walk down memory lane with sincerity by my side.
What. If.
The world would go on, for sure.
I’d be missed for a few by those who visit daily, but after a while, even they would move on.
There are thousands upon thousands of writers and ways to replace their attention and why wouldn’t they ?? I’ve exited, I’m gone …
& here, my thoughts and I would continue, alone in the stillness.
ahhhhh.
The STILLNESS.
Yep.
Right THERE sits one of my favorite inspirations from my forever obsession, Rainer Maria Rilke …
This above all – ask yourself in the stillest hour of your night: must I write? …
and I realize, once again,
I can’t stop.
I won’t stop.
Because it is within this perfect silence where I find ME.
And yes, Rainer Maria Rilke.
