I am supposed to be writing “field notes”.
Let me start again.
I am going through a spiritual program where we were all asked to write every day; to keep “field notes” on what is going on in our lives. Journaling.
Note: I don’t talk about my spiritual program because It’s one of those things I don’t talk about except with my friends who are going through it with me. Just ask Edmund, I don’t even talk about it with him. So, contrary to popular belief, I do not post every thought or every thing I do on the interwebs. I’m deep like that.
But these field notes. I have not written any. Whenever I think about them I get all panicky. I’ve never been good at the journaling thing. Maybe I should start thinking of it like I do this blog blag. In that I just do it. If I miss a day, I go back in time and write stuff for the previous day.
I wonder if I can change my perspective. I say that I’ve never been good at the journaling thing, what if I work on becoming good at it? Hey, I quit Coke, I can do ANYTHING, right? Isn’t it self-defeating to be all like “I’m not good at that”? First of all, who cares if I’m good at it? The journal/field notes are for my eyes only. They don’t have to be good, or right, just written down. Done. I have no parameters other than field notes.
Now I’m going to overthink it. Google Field Notes and see what comes up. Try to ensure I’m doing them right.
Seems like a good time to just do it.
God hates a coward, you know.
