Posting in the making of having my own waybackmachine. Funny enough its one big circle. I started out with the idea that paperdolljournal.com is a holding space to share my family history research journey with the idea that I would be in community with writers online as a source of writing accountability. This morning I took the leap to get back to making it plain. This is my self discovery journey blog for becoming a writer. Right now I am feeling like holding space within oneself for discovery is just as challenging as it is to request from others. From the practice of holding space for myself, I can better recognize when others are holding space for me and I acknowledge it. "Thank you for making space for me to...". While this may appear gracious, its still about the self for which I now use an exercise for mindfulness. Now understanding that showing gratitude starts with how I want to feel. How the person receives it is what?.... "None of my spiritual business." I've been using that phrase since my young adulthood in the '90s when I was a bonafide 'Science of the Mind' believer and follower. What a ride. Looking back it was the 'je ne sais quoi' of youth. The photo is the picturing of a part of the journey. A snap shot of the focus and the community spaces that I've been pushing into along the way. Bon voyage - xoLisa  |
