Monday: Musings and meanderings of my mind.

The world I create in writing compensates for what the realworld does not give me.
--Gloria Anzaldua

One only needs compensation when one feels that one has been slighted or somehow has less. I don't consider that to be my reality.

My reality is filled with an amazing array of possibilities. I am only limited by what I can choose to perceive or by my own actions.

Writing has never been an escape for me but an adventure. As our dear William wrote, and I paraphrase, I do not sit down to write with any other audience in my mind other than me.

To me writing is a game, a journey, sometimes a healing, a venting place, a growing place, and always takes me to a sacred space. How can the me that is manifest in my writing be anyway removed from my total reality. It is a part of the greater whole of my reality but often it is the sum of the many facets of my reality and therefore maybe my world of writing becomes greater than that which others perceive.

However, it is within the mind that we color and create our perceptions. In that way I am no different than any other human. I dramatize. I criticize. I romanticize. I traumatize. And sometimes I lies about the idylity of my reality.

This the joy of my life with my mind where the writer in me communicates sometimes effectively, sometimes pedantically, but always with a sense of pleasure and intensity. The smallest exercise can become an orgasmic blow-out of my mind. I guess the consensus reality does not give me that but perhaps sometimes I give this gift to the whole.

Like the world, my mind is filled with infinite possibilities.
