We never dance polka.

Hey ho, Hi ho and how are you doing? It's time for Thursday Creativity Share. Welcome!
I just learned about these crazy creations called gathas, simple little poems you recite along with the rhythm of your breathing. Gathas can help you with staying mindful. Example:
Before starting the car
I know where I am going.
The car and I are one,
if the car goes fast, I go fast.
Nice, right? There are gathas for brushing your teeth, washing the dishes, waking up. Here's a gatha I wrote to recite when I start worrying because I don't know what my job will be next year.
I am 53 years old.
I have no job.
My fate is in others' hands.
Nothing can be done.
And that's Thursday Creativity Share. It's a wrap. See you next week with more creative stuff you need to know about.

A job will appear eventually. My real problem is probably my lack of patience.

With the in breath: I am solid
With the out breath: I am free.
Nice.
JW. You know patience isn't my strong suit. I'm calming down though because I just feel it's going to work out. Yes, those pansies are in our garden. And the orchid. And so many cyclamen. OUr landman is a master gardener. Love being out there.
