Especially On Tuesday

You’re welcome and warmly waved over to jump in and listen to a twisty and, at times, tangled conversation of many pondering ponders that were pointless until they weren’t.

From talking to assuming extinction is inevitable (which it’s not), to realising why I was always going to be drawn to my favourite human (which was totally actually really new to me in this moment).

The point and purpose of sharing this cluttered coming together of many thinking thoughts is to share a way a mind can work that is unremarkable to me and is more normal to most that’s not often shared aloud.

This conversation is shared to inspire your conversations with yourself and your humans in real life to pick up and play out ponderings that too are pointless until they aren’t.

Remember, hold it lightly and only take the knowing and love the feeling of leaving the living creature to live a living life.

Just in case you are curious, to hear how my thinking thoughts usually sound when I’m thinking it, you could do like me and speed it up, some days it’s x1.5 up to x2 playback speed, on average, x1.25 is an easy intake of enough 🦦

Sources that gave enough to inform, influence, and inspire these ponders…

You’re most welcome to pop a ponder uttered out loud in your curious ears. Please note and know that this is a thinking thought that has little to no meaning in the world that’s wild and wide until it does.

Heya wonder-fill human 👋 You’re most welcome to jump into a thinking thought out loud as I share a little line of thinking connecting what we have with what we do and how we can leverage this to have more say in our day-to-day view.

Soz it’s a little on the quiet side of sounds, please know this means my insides are screaming and so to speak any louder doesn’t seem possible or practical.

Please put your loose listening ears on and be sure to potter about as you listen to the interwoven and interweaving lines of thinking coming together to grow something before it is knowingly known.

Remember, as always and ever, please take that which is yours and lovingly leave the rest.

You’re invited into a moment where you weren’t welcomed or wanted, but one that is shared with you in mind. It’s a moment that was born and beared pure bliss because it was noticed. The point, the purpose and the promise in this particular conversation is to give you a little of the moment to share enough to enjoy the joy woven into and interwoven the words to carry and convey something you may notice in your day (too).

As always, the actual event is just an example and means alot to me and little to you. What really matters here is you know another little that can do big things for you when you begin to notice them in your ways in your days — the key is to begin to notice when you feel those feels of the light seemingly being a little lighter in the places only we know 💛

A little language thang that is working for this human that may work for you too. You’re most welcome to jump in and join the conversation about the part sorry plays in our conscious and unconscious utterances.

Within these words you’ll learn a little about sorry , even littler about soz, and grow a sense of how they’re different and can be more when they’re applied as shared here.

In saying that last part, everything here is just only ever a suggestion and you’re egged on to break and make your own rules of thumb in the way your words work for you.

The point the purpose and the potential here is to lighten the load on the little slips and to make the sads and sorrows mean more.

As always, you’re encouraged and encourageable to be loose on the ear, curious on the mind, and forever working alongside and with your words in the wild.

Oh, the bliss and beauty of rhetoric in real life is something that will forever fill one’s cup completely. Talking about the title here of “…over thought over thinking until it felt thought over” being more than a polyptoton working its wonders in the wild, but just eh joy of knowing that our minds will meander in our ways and days to work with us and it can be only us that says other wise.

Here I share a little part of my paving a path out of the ditch that was depressed and feeling the feels of climbing a slippery slope back to my human-ing best baseline.

You can listen ever so loosely to how I tie and tether my minds metaphoric infinite space to a couple of key words. This is shared with a working example to piggy back on if you want to find your feet in a space and place seemingly without footing.

This is a conversation where it’s best to be doing something and paying less than one-eighth of your conscious attention to the exact words and to let the unconscious knowing take the lead in listening and love itself silly with what’s being said here.

It’s a little fun, full of folly, and working in ways were yet to realise in reality…

Enjoy.

This is a catch up conversation to close a loop opened in our chat yesterday. I mentioned to things I realised while reading Thinking Fast Thinking Slow and totes forgot to circle back to close that loop — if it were a series, it would be a spin off of a supporting character’s life coming into their own.

Until when, take a leaf from my language on Friday…keep it loose and love your best life out loud 😉

You’re welcome and invited to jump in and join the conversation that’ll be nothing and everything in the long run. Over recently times I’ve been trialling and testing different ways to talk to topics that are kinda taboo and yet they’re needed and necessary 🤭

Because we know what the words are doing here, we use them to ditch the idea of difficult conversations and bring in the curious.

This conversation is the first of a couple of parts coming together, which means it’s chunky and clunky and kinda jumpy as I lean in and leverage my knowing to support the growing idea of how we can work with our past to inform the present and potential future for ourselves and us.

As always, this conversation is shared unedited to continue to illustrate and offer an example of the complexity of the kick off conversation. I encourage you to lean in and on the complexity to feel the calm knowing from the experience this is important to get where we’re going — the complexity offers the many parts to be played with and to come together in connections soon to be connected.

It’s these types of conversations it’s most important to listen lightly (think of Soap Operas, where watch every couple of weeks and you still know what’s going on, instead, be moving about and give the lightest attention to pick up the gist to get enough.)

Until when, may your days be in your favour and forever your new favourite.

You’re most welcome to jump in and listen to how I navigated (and continue to navigate) a recent experience and episode of extended deepening depression deep. The repeated sunken sad is super normal for me and now I have enough resources to really realise there is opportunity to leverage these moments and meet them with a task that needs doing which has the same characteristics.

Specifically, because of my continued efforts to shape and structure my social supports and days and ways (yup, a lot through the lens of my language), I realised the real opportunity I could do something that needed to be done slowly and with a sense of calm…and guess what, these are the leading two characteristics of my deep deepening.

While my low lingers continues to soften with each sunrise, I can see where I have been and what’s ahead. It’s a strange feeling each time that without reason or rhyme, this is normal for many of us.

So I share this out loud for the purpose of letting you in on a little of the language that can truly evolve an experience, grow a knowing, and find a peace in the persistence.

Until when, may your days be by your design and may you always have a sense of knowing your you is the best you you can do.

Welcome to a placeholder that’s here to let you know that there was an important conversation conversed, that was published and public for a time and for now it has retreated out of sit to the backend.

It was here for one day and one night and stopped short of the 24h cooling off publishing period. If you’re curious, it’s a podcast internet rss feed thang. Nothing scandalous, nothing cool, nothing even exciting, just one human navigating her human-ing out loud in real0life in real-time.

For now, thank you being the you that only you do.
