The way you describe things shows that you have seen them uninterrupted long enough to have formed a full vision. You can drum for long periods of time, all things that give your heart time to show up. I firmly belief that and now keep the thought about Jay and you together long enough without interruptions. I so love what you say here; <blockquote>Interruptions distract from the natural flow and whatever you are creating is then irreparably changed.</blockquote> YES, and to get that in our thick skull is so important, interruptions are damaging. Yes, jobs are interruptions and we have to live with that for the moment BUT I so love that you are aware. That is half the win, and yes minimizing unnecessary obligations is a big one too for us women who feel soooo bad when we let those go. But it is for our survival, it is for the survival of authenticity and a life that is adding value coming from love and respect.

I mean for god's sake I live in the U.S. and unless your out in the middle of nowhere, quiet and solitude is very hard to come by!

I have never thought about "interruptions" but I agree with all that you've covered. I try to live with a mindfully present mindset at all times. I am one of the few who leave my cell phone in the car while I am out and about so that I may give my complete attention to the person or activity I am engaged in. If my children are engrossed in reading or art or any project, I will postpone dinner until they take a natural break. I listen until someone is finished. I think energy is precious and must be conserved. Interruptions distract from the natural flow and whatever you are creating is then irreparably changed. I can do much better, though, as my job is an interruption I accept in my life and needs to be changed. Lots of "obligations" I continue to honor can also be viewed as interruptions and by lettign them stand I am then interrupting my own creativity. Thank you for sharing as you do! .-= Joy´s last blog ..<a href="http://etherealjoy.blogspot.com/2010/03/my-weekend-away.html" rel="nofollow">My Weekend Away......</a> =-. Wilma,

If I would have not been aware of how life interrupts I am absolutely sure I would NOT be living here. I would not have thought it possible for long enough, I would not have had the patience and trust to wait for it to show up as interrupting thoughts about recession and I cannot live rurally would all have made my confidence and trust waiver. A rushed and interrupted life would NOT have allowed me to see possibilities and the wholesome 'what is so'. Indeed slowing down and keeping my own thoughts focused on; it IS possible despite all the bad news and scare mongery that tried to interrupt my confidence. Kristie, I am so absolutely thrilled you got what I am saying, because understanding this opens the gateway to who we really are and to what we really can create. We have to realize the destruction that constant distractions is causing to our thoughts and how it has us behave in erratic ways. Love to you too, xox Wilma Hi Kristie

I absolutely loved this post. Probably one of my favourite posts I've read, ever. It simply makes so much sense and at the same time it brought out awareness in me of how much I get distracted or interrupted everyday. I've always known I should keep focused and make "me" time, but haven't quite thought of it this way. It's a great reminder to SLOW DOWN in the middle of this crazy, busy world that we live in. There are so many truths and realisations in this post, I can't even come up with a proper response explaining how much I can relate! haha. Second of all: Is that your HOUSE?? Love, Kristie Wilma,
