It's a sure sign that time is moving. I was talking with a friend about this the other day as we were walking. Time and space are always changing and moving and you're never in the same place ever. When you're staring off into the distance looking at something far away, you're not actually seeing what is there. You're seeing what was there. It takes time for stuff to reach your eyes. Things have already changed and become something else by the time you actually see them. It's a fairly strange concept.
I feel like that's how I see things in my life. I look at things far away because I keep things far away from me. And by the time something reaches my eyes, it's already changed. It's already different. Maybe it was one thing at one point in time that I was seeing, and now... it's not. I don't know. I need to stop thinking about this for awhile. Sometimes thoughts are just too big. Too much for my little mind and my little heart.
I started a new big project. :) It's a beautiful, or rather will be a beautiful afghan for my Mom. The colors are amazing and it's very creatively done. It's crocheted in a combination of smaller pieces sewn together, crocheted on and then more small pieces added. I'm enjoying the change of pace. Beading is just not holding my attention right now. Neither is knitting. I would like to do a few more small projects though just so I can feel like I'm accomplishing something. It makes things more manageable and feel more possible.
I'm sometimes overwhelmed by everything that I would like to do in my life. All the books I want to read and all the projects I'd like to do. All of the places that I would like to visit. Everyone that I want to see and spend time with. For today though, it's enough to crochet and spend time with my Mom.
