This is my 1500th post on WordPress. I started writing them on June 20, 2014, the day after I retired from teaching. A few years later, I began putting them on Facebook too.
“It’s a huge number!”
“No, it’s just a number”
Both are true. It’s a lot of writing, almost all of which I can’t remember! Endless topics that I felt drawn to – moments, people, places, feelings.
How strange that it all seems to have blown away in the breeze. Nothing has accumulated. And I want to keep doing it. Probably I won’t remember these words tomorrow!
Somewhere in the world are folks who nodded in response to a post of mine … or vigorously shook their head “No!” It’s all good.
I figure my hands are meant to be open, with my fingers unfurled. Wrapping around and squeezing tight doesn’t sound like a good idea. We need to breathe deeply.
Perhaps one of my thoughts will land lightly on someone’s palm, stay awhile and then float away. I hope so.
What does it all mean? Maybe nothing. What if I live my life in the very centre of what I’m experiencing, without adding any conclusions? No “and therefore …”
Sounds like fun to me
This is amazing! I have not read all the 1500 by a long shot, but since following you along the last few years I sure have enjoyed your words and photos!
Thank you, Donna. The journey continues.
