Writing

I hope I remember to write in here. Sometimes I forget and sometimes I am just too busy being. The wasted time I spend writing instead of living. Why look back on the page when I can be present in the moment? Is it a mean rejection of selfishness to engage with the world rather than myself?

There is always something to see, something to hear. On the fun run this morning it was hot but fun. Fun to run it in 27:45, which was my personal best. Ben did it in 23:50, which was awesome I think. Morgen ran his first 5K in 43 minutes, which is great especially for not training that much. There were sounds all around us, even while running, especially in running: wind, birds, bees. I seek that stillness. In nature where I can listen and it's heightened by my ability to embrace quiet. After the run, we stayed for the prizes which none of us won, and watched the parade. Love,

B
