The Daily Mess Challenged By The Shadow

What you can’t see is how bright the sun is on this daily writing. There are so many shadows! I can barely see through them to find my writing. There has to be a lesson here. The nib on the page is there but the shadows of my hand and other objects around me are overbearing to the well lit page. I’m trusting my arm to send messages to the brain claiming it’s all good. A normal person would move to a different area or pull the shade. My choice is to feel the energy of both the sun and the shadow. I’ve taken a picture of this moment. But it remains undelivered to the future reader and or listener. The imagination is challenged because it’s used to seeing the entire layout of writing. The mind’s eye wants to find the story within the layer of shadows. A lesson. So many sources of light yet they are blocked out by objects including my writing hand. It’s as if we’re falling witness to our own eclipse. Once to the end of the page everything was back to normal. The lesson learned? Move through your darkness. You know the way. Trust the tools that you were given. Your brain will receive the message by delivering you to the other side of your questions.
