Do I Ever?

I wrote this yesterday and still like it this morning.  So, here it is:

 Do I read old posts for my own enjoyment?  Not really.  I try to go over every post to make it as perfect as I can.  But very seldom do I go back over old ones and read them.  Only unless I am curious about what I said before.  It might seem I smoke the same pipes and tobaccos regularly.  It’s too expensive for me to order many tobaccos in small quantities.  And if I enjoy a certain tobacco I’ll order it regularly.

I might say similar things in various posts, but I might go back to see how I said something before.  The ideas might be similar, but I try not to repeat the same idea over and over.  I’ll go back over titles of posts I have made.  I’ll get an idea and wonder if I’ve said something similar before.  Doing this helps me keep my memory sharp.  

I might write about Old Professor pipe tobacco a lot, but I try to keep an idea fresh.  If it’s Germaine, I’ll add it to the discussion.  It all just depends.  I used to call my Angels my Spirit Guides, but now I’ll call them my Angels.  I was hesitant about calling my Angels my Angels, but now I have no fear in doing so.  I try to keep my writings fresh.  I might have said the same thing before, but it’s still relevant to today.  

Everything I say is relevant to today.  At least this is my thinking.  I only smoke a few tobaccos the same month.  I rotate my pipes as much as I can, but I have my favorites.  My Angels are always the same.  But every single day is different.  My thinking is different every day.  I just try not to be stuck in a groove.  Writing must be fresh or it’s not relevant to today.  

I sit a lot smoking my pipes, or so it seems.  But my mind is on different things every single day.  It just depends.  Yesterday, I gave thought to being a crazy old man.  I liked what I wrote yesterday.  Some days I post and then after a few hours later I might hope no one sees that post.  Some posts surprise even myself.  But I want my posts to just be about whatever is on my mind that day.

And if I feel I have nothing to say that day, I simply won’t post.  Here I write a kind of diary.  I’m just sharing it with others.  Sometimes I need a break.  I’ll send the link to just a few and post on FB.  Otherwise I let google handle the information.  If anyone wants to read my posts they are in public view.  But I write only for my own pleasure in writing.  And it’s okay if a few days go by and I’ve posted nothing.

The Spirit didn’t give me something to say.  And it’s okay if I have nothing to say.  If I have something to say, I’ll say it, post it, and generally I’ll remember what I have to remember and forget about the rest.  These posts are to be fun with just an idea to think about.  I’ll share my thoughts and move on.

I just don’t want to be stuck in a groove.  Everything is to be fresh, not stale.  It just depends on how I am thinking every single day.  If I feel I am stuck, it’s writer’s block.  No writing should be forced.  All writing flows.  I want my writing to be a conversation, even if I just write for myself.  If it does not flow, no need to write.  

I simply enjoy doing this.  If I didn’t, I’d find something else.  But this way I’m not bothering anyone.  If you don’t want to read it no one is forcing you.  I post it and then the Spirit chooses who reads it.  No one sees me smoking my pipe and sitting here, but most know I do.  I’m letting you see just a bit of my mind.  God sees the rest.  I’m at my best alone with God while smoking my pipe.  It’s why I smoke a pipe, usually alone.  He and I have a lot to discuss.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.
