You’re always on your way somewhere. The key is: find a way to be happy wherever you now are on your way to where you really want to be. (We’re speaking of the state of being you want.) It does not matter where you are; where you are is shifting constantly—but you must turn your attention to where you want to go. And that’s the difference between making the best of something and making the worst of something.

Excerpted from the workshop in Detroit, MI on Saturday, September 27th, 2003

Chickpea curry with whole grain couscous instead rice , couple of glasses of bon vin blanc sec ( dry white wine ) and a crisp and juicy apple for dessert. I'm craving apples these days. Can't get enough of them. Weird.

Had dinner with Jim Carrey ( Film on TV ) Light entertainment. He's so sexy in a goofy sort of way. Enchanting . Mesmerizing chap. So many facial expressions. Fabulous aura and presennce. Wouldn't mind having him over for dinner when Antonio is not around He would be exhausting though ......

Has anyone seen the Lady Moon ? She's waxing now but I 've looked and looked and nadda

So , time to turn in after I post an Abe quote that I found, when I find it

Night night Blogland, sweet dreams !

Right.... I've shown you  mine , now will you show me yours ?

Writing longhand is very satisfying.
Especially with a fountain-pen
or a pen that writes smoothly
you know , when the ink flows smoothly and without clogging, stopping or scratching.
I have a thing about pens and fountain -pens
I also tend to lose them
Or misplace them
Right now I am obsessing about my blue Pilot gel pen
which is like my turquoise Pilot pen , but is blue and runs on gel or something
Sadly , it's gone.
I always loose the good ones.
I got my first fountain pen , a Parker Lady , when I was six.
Took it to school and someone stole it
but I got it back only to loose it 30 years later.
That was sad.
Subconsciously I must  still be greiving that pen
otherwise, why would I obsess about losing pens ?
Sometimes I wonder if I am using the computer too much.
Writing longhand is very very different.
I've been neglecting longhand writing in my journal.
Most things are now on the computer
Easier to read that way
But , my handwriting is going from bad to worse and becoming almost illegible.
Thoughts become visible and clear when typed on screen,
I remember things better when I write them down longhand
Something very special about that physical action of writing longhand - it involves the WHOLE body , while typing tends to involve just the hands and fingers.
My typing is a lot slower than my longhand writing
I am more conscise and economical with words when I type
More passionate and creative when I write longhand,
What about you ?
