jan 21. rain. spent the better part of the day trying not to think about the work that remains incomplete and or untouched. woke up with the feeling of the glass being half empty instead of half full. started work on my dreaming tree.

my dreaming tree. for a good half an hour i was lost as to what to put on it. and then i picked up a post it note and a sharpie and just wrote what would be good advice to anybody out there. "pause for 5 minutes and breathe". and i stuck it on there.

a couple of minutes elapsed. "love thyself".

i didn't exactly stop to look at what i've done till lunch time. i've surprised myself. my dreaming tree. it will serve as a source of motivation, a positive distraction, and in times of desperation - a dear friend.
