When you slow down - stuff comes up

I had a very strange experience as I moved into the fall season. Many of the things that use to consume my time and energy had vanished and though I am very business I had this uneasy feeling of space in my life that I just wasn't use to.
The empty space was a sign post for me to refelct on where my life was headed and what should be included as well as excluded. I decided to excavate my desire to be a screenplay writer and then to leave the remaining empty space - EMPTY that could be filled spontaneously or left as a place of retreat and inner reflection.
Winters in Michigan seem very long and I know that the season itself slows me down but this year, I plan to treat it as an intentional time to cultivate some new interests, make some new friends, and expand my experience of peace and passion for life.
