yes yes yes....the other day I had a profound awakining in a subtle way. I was hanging out on the beach with my little family, and just surrounded by the warmest air and uncrowded gorgeous land, exactly pretty much where I always have wanted to be, and my mind was going blah blah blah about whatever, and I was hit by this voice inside saying "Why would you want to be anywhere else?". and yet that is a thought that is almost constantly in my head ...escape...I had to have a little laugh and just say to myself"You're so right!" this is esactly where I am supposed to be...and this is so gentle and good....thatnk you God!" Total Alignemnt once again, and I've been so much more at Peace!

Love you Connie

I received your post via email (I read everyone of your posts)... I am feeling 'dizzy' from the over stimulation of the net ATM... I feel like I might 'miss something'... but I then remember, life will go on wether I am here or not... I need to focus and 'live' MY own life.

Everything in moderation... {{hugs}}

For me, I call that feeling you had before your hiatus being ungrounded. Whenever I start feeling scattery I know I need some alone time--some grounding time. Funny as needing "alone time" sounds...because I actually live alone...the internet and the TV and all the electronics do the same thing to me as when I was just busy rushing about with job and family and errands and such.

Periodically I find I need to cut back on all the online activities, too. They seem to expand slowly when you're not looking--LOL!

You sound happy, centered, and grounded now. Good for you. Take time out for yourself to refuel often!! :)

I couldn't have said it better myself! I've really become aware of how noisy the internet feels for me (and I love it too) but that when I am here too much, I start to feel disconnected and overstimulated and then anxious. I'm thinking over how I would like my relationship with the online world to look and want to restructure accordingly:) x

This is wonderful! It reminds me that I need to be more protective of that space inside me where I know what I need to do. Thank you!

I don't think you could possibly know how perfectly timed this is. Thank you for articulating it so well.

Connie, you write so darn well and I feel every sentence. THANK YOU for this AWESOME post!
When I need some alignment, I, for sure, will re-read this post.

This is a great reminder that we can find inspiration in our own spirits and that we don't always NEED information. I too have a hard time leaving the internet because I tend to go on information "binges" when I need an answer when I should be looking for the answer out on the hiking trail, in my journal, or in meditation. I'm going to unplug this weekend after publishing my Saturday morning post (already written and ready to go) and just listen. I can't wait.

I agree connie -- we have a home in the mountains of north carolina part time and there is no internet there -- I find that I enjoy my time without it -- more reading, knitting and being creative -- but as soon as I get home I am back into it -- will have to try harder to step back --

This is written in such a clear and lovely way. You express yourself well. I agree with you, the internet is noisy at times. I started blogging only in September and already it is overwhelming and I spend way too much time on the computer rather than creating art. Yours is not the first post I read this week regarding balance. It's all about balance, isn't it? Enjoy your new home.
