As hard as I try to maintain clarity in communication, the poetic muse has come to visit me today. Even if I don't write poetry, my thoughts are more connected with my imagination now than they are with reality. Saying things impulsively can create problems, my image-rich language paints a picture rather than telling a story. I try not to force my communications into overly formal presentations. Instead... just describe what I see in my mind's eye the best I can. It's complicated when there is more to do than can fit into my schedule. I respond by wanting to escape from the real world, and I'm actually better off when I spend some time alone. I've concluded that pulling back from a hectic day is far more effective in the long run while preventing the world from spinning wildly out of control. Even though I'm dreaming of the future, it's still a very down-to-earth day. There is work to do and I shouldn't be deterred from my tasks. Being efficient is usually a high priority for myself, but I usually get so carried away with my need for precision that sometimes makes me miss seeing the bigger picture. Others can rely on me to respond with compassion, yet they simultaneously expect me to know how to deal with practical matters too. I hope people really appreciate me when I have this heart-head combo working. Lately, I am feeling a bit scattered with too many choices, but it's better to have more possibilities than fewer. I'll be choosy; yet I don't have to use all of them. I normally can be my calm, cool and collected self. Others may be disappointed if they believe that they can rely on me analysis and logic to lead the way, I don't always have my mind set on intelligence. There are other factors for me to consider now, among them is the realization that thinking isn't the only way to arrive at a conclusion. Sometimes I just need to dance to the music within. I think that my character flaw is about the people I attract into my life. If I can find a way to go along with the flow, even if it takes me places that are only barely acceptable, I could end up having a fine time. If, however, I am resistant to the new experience, then today may be quite a challenge. The choice is in my hands even though it's not be apparent at first. It doesn't matter how perfect something looks today; It shouldn't be misled by outward appearances. Nothing is as it seems. Struggle as I might, it's still challenging to see what's going down. Part of the problem is that I may uncharacteristically overlook the details now. I won't put my reputation on the line unless I am certain about what I am doing. |
