I remember what it was like to finally write with a pen rather than a pencil. My teachers were extremely strict about what I held in my hand. Was it because we could easily erase the mistakes we made during spelling tests and while trying to figure out addition and subtraction? On this podcast I dive into those moments of things we should erase but too many of us are documenting our lives with a pen. Sure you can try to scratch it out but I've learned as a daily writer that the truer story and or attempt still lives on the opposite side of the sheet of paper. Which is why I'll probably never reach for a digital way to keep whatever energy is moving through me. Computer screens don't require an eraser and once your thoughts are gone you can't come back to the truthful walk you can only assume you know what you were feeling. If we are to be living in the presence of Now shouldn't that come with an eraser and or computer screen that magically makes words disappear? I agree with that approach and yet I'm torn by why we erase things rather than heal from them. This isn't conceited but I locate knowledge in the pages written 18 to 25 years ago. Stuff my heart let go of reunites with where I stand today. There's no judgement, there's only experience. In all that we do daily, how you once lived can physically and mentally change someone's life during these moments of everyday change and challenge. Allow yourself to put faith in your worst days so others don't have to endure the same. Teach your journey. You've mastered survival.
