Writing Prompt: Invent a new word and define it. Let it replace a feeling, action or idea that you believe the world needs, yet you have found no other way of expressing. Incorporate it to your vocabulary and start using it.
"MIDDLEMENT"
The state of being in that "in the meantime,"in-between-time and accepting that there is, indeed, "a grey area." Neither black nor white.
Remaining comfortable in the discomfort that is not knowing quite what's next. And to use this midway point/this middle time/existing in this "middlement:"
-- to take stock in the past and assess what may come in the future.
A reminder that it's not being "stuck in the middle" but embracing the present.
Being present. Remaining present. Appreciating that gift.
Like this great quote by artist Jodi Hills:
And so this also applies to these exercises, to this creative writing course, to my personal dreams and goals and inner calling of writing. You must live in your truth.
Wherever you are is OK.
Baby Steps. One day at a time.
Just launch forward with momentum from your "middlement."
A place and space and mindset to sit, rest, deserve and be.
And appreciate being surrounded, in the middle of it all.
