Focus February Update: well I’ve managed to get one big job done! The doors in my house are now all finally painted. Money wise I’ve noted it’s when I’m tired that the ‘extra’ bits find their way into my shopping bag. I’ve realised I’ve spent about £10 extra this month on food I dont really need – but that’s the only thing I’ve bought outside of my no spend even having been tempted!
I thought I’d share today another poem from my writing workshop. We were asked to look around the cafe and write from the point of view of an object within it. No justification, no explanation… my eyes were drawn to a set of toilet rolls sat within some shopping left on a table as its owner went to order.
Right now I’m sat on a chair I’m not quite sure why I am here I know I have purpose but right here is not where I should be or is it? I want to be purposeful, useful although I worry about the wait I am not patient and I am alone on a chair with lots of others that look like me that may get picked first
I feel out of place surrounded by sounds & smells that dont feel fitting to where I feel I should be
but what is feeling? should I just enjoy where I am worry less about not being where I should be believe my time will come where my purpose is revealled
sat here on a chair waiting unnoticed and yet, you noticed me because I was unusual you started writing about me why – how does your mind work that out of all the colour and texture and beauty in this place you thought about how I may feel
Afterwards we were asked to read it back and note what we saw. I saw me. What do you see?
