Hey Sweet Susan :-)
Well it makes perfect sense to me that the thoughts would arise when they do. It's exactly because you are happy just puttering that they occur. The term 'mindless activity' can actually be pretty accurate, for me it's watering the garden that lets my mind dance a merry dance, because most other times it's too choick full of other stuff that requires conscious effort to get done.
LOL, I hate what it is I do and the fact that I've been doing it increasingly poorly lately. And if you have 1/2 a mind then you're at least 50% up on me ;-)
You can talk to me if you want to, I'd like to hear all of it, the good, the bad, the confounded and confused, all of it.
Oh yeah, a cute little caterpillar doesn't have to die to become a beautiful butterfly, but there are certain stages that must be gone through. I don't think anyone wants those they love and care for to die. Its in the remembering that that they'll always live on. Hold on that little girl you, don't ever lose her, she's part of what makes you so precious, and just maybe where you get some your most endearing characteristics from.
I'm not sure I've ever been whole Susan, not ever. D*mn sure I've been a huge black hole at times but I'm getting there little by little, making space in my bubble for others to join me. Letting them see the me that was always there, just never seen.
Yes, God bless Babble, and God bless you too.
