Another day of two prompts:

Prompt one;

Body integration. This year, when did you feel the most integrated with your body? Did you have a moment where there wasn't mind and body, but simply a cohesive YOU, alive and present?

This has an easy answer - my body and I are in binding arbitration to get along with each other. Right now we don't exactly take orders from headquarters too well.

Prompt Two:

Action. When it comes to aspirations, its not about ideas. It's about making ideas happen. What's your next step?

For a person with ADHD, this is sometimes a very hard step. Shiny things (either really shiny or just mentally shiny) tend to get our attention and side track us from doing what we need to do to get things done. Right now, I'm working on getting my my writing in gear and back into the "write every day" thing. Somedays I pass, somedays I fail, but I"m making progress. My desk, for this, has to be clean, and that's a challenge when you live with someone whose nickname is "tornado". But I'm managing, and he's slowly learning to organize himself. Guess, for once, that I'm a good example, then! HA!
