MY EXCUSE!
|| This summary written on Tuesday 5th September 2023
The more observant reader may have noticed that there have been some extended gaps between my sittings for spirit-inspired writing. That’s because I’ve been a little busy with DIY stuff in the house.
At the beginning of this year, we set a plan to decorate all the rooms downstairs this year. New floors running throughout with no door stops, new radiator in the lounge, new sliding door to the kitchen from the hallway, wallpapering, painting and finishing everything to the highest standards I can achieve.
The problem I have these days is my energy levels are not what they used to be and the length of time I can work each day is very much less than when I was younger and healthier. So when I’ve been grafting all day on DIY, I find myself too tired to do anything else, including sitting for meditation.
In between all the house work, I’ve also had to produce the weekly content for my online presentations. A week’s publications takes around 25 hours to produce and I’ve managed to keep them all on schedule throughout the year. Thankfully, I had created a huge bank of spirit-inspired writing sessions that I could use to keep everything on schedule. And when we holidayed in Lanzarote in June, I sat for 13 new sessions, keeping the supply topped up.
As I’m writing this, I only have one more session written after today to use. But I’m not concerned. As you read this, we are returning again from Lanzarote where we’ve been for the past three weeks. I should have topped the sessions bank up with a further 21. That will make sure I have WFSIW content right up the the end of the year.
So, although today’s speaker appears to be having a poke at me about not sitting for them as often as I should have, I have my reasons, as you’ve just read. It’s not that I didn’t want to, I simply didn’t have the time. Although, I confess, I don’t like not sitting for writing as often as I’d like to. Gaps tend to allow my mental monsters to play in my mind.
Although those that work with me from the spirit world are always there, I’ve found that if I leave it a few weeks between sitting, I have to work harder on settling back into the flow. I suppose I should discipline myself and make sure to sit more frequently, as I used to. But hey, ordinary life does get in the way, as it does for all of us, yes?
