The Distraction of Now

The Twisting Tail


It’s like opening 100 tabs in your browser at once and trying to do something different in each one at the same time. Then someone walks up and wants to have a conversation.

Jennifer Arnott


Not now
Okay, nnnnnnnnnnnow
Quickly NOW
Now, now, now
Why is it always now?



My mind is an e x p a n s e
Littered with upright needle points
With no clear path I c o l l e c t
C o a t i n g m y j u t t i n g j o i n t s


I sparkle in the desert
A beacon of distraction


What came first
The ADHD
Or forcing youth to school
Too early


Starting School Early MAY Be Tied To ADHD Symptoms In Children

If….. if only or what if?

Keep it alive

Linda is the host of One Liner Wednesday

If we stopped using “if only” or “what if” in our conversation or even in our thinking, I personally feel that we would fare much better in life;

Wishful thinking starting with 

If only…….


Or maybe


What if…….


It leads our hearts into an unending quagmire


We get so involved in what could’ve been or would’ve been


That we lose sight of what IS and what we have!

This week our prompt is;

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “if.”Start your post with the word “If.” Enjoy!

Destination

Keep it alive

Approach your destination resolutely 

Keep on looking at the goal unwaveringly

There will be many temptations on the side streets

Enticing you to abandon your purpose just for a while

Just take a deep breath and follow your goal single-mindedly

The twists of destiny are mighty strange


They will lead you to a place already marked for you

➰➰➰

Judyhas given us a prompt ;
