Meditation: Well, I got a second job. My workweeks are going to be as nuts or more so than predicted. On a good day I’m going to have two hours to write, if I have iron clad time management and discipline. The good part is I’m going to not have constant financial anxiety for the first time in my life and be able to provide for my family adequately. The bad part, or at least the confusing part, is I have to prioritize what I’m doing - aggressively.
This hits close to home. My entire adult life I've never had more than one hour of dedicated writing time a day. And even then its only because I take it, I steal it, I force it. I get up long before the sun's up and I make it work. It's not perfect. It's not what I'd prefer. But the words know where to find, they always know when and where I'll be. And that's not nothing. That's something. Some days, that's everything.
It might be a cliche to say it, but even cliches can tell the truth. Where there's a will you can be damn sure that there will always be. a way.
An arch gets stronger the more load you put on it.
Godspeed, sir!
