Someone told me that for the Irish\u2014the celts\u2014beaches are in between spaces. It\u2019s not quite one thing or the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not land. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Walk along the edge of the water, one foot on sand. It can give a view into things hard to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am in the realm of maybe both. No job. It\u2019s not quite summer and not quite fall. The school year starts this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the in between time, before summer is ended and before I have found my next job, I am looking to check in on myself. Do I recognize what I see?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m looking for a view into things. It\u2019s not a comfortable place, spinning in place without progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Should I start all over again? Give this EtchaSketch a hard shake and see what is possible?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is stable? What can I be sure of?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know I am committed to doing this weekly post. I may be in between a lot of things, but I am always a writer. I may not feel like it all the time. I know that feeling like it is not required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only qualification to be a writer is to write something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And there it is. I can take the action\u2014make the choice\u2014in this space of both and neither. I don\u2019t have to feel the progress. I can make progress without feeling it. One choice, one move is all it takes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t even have to stop the spin. I can tilt just a little to get going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t feel it yet, but I will. I can be sure of that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
