I don't think I can actually post from here. As in the iPad. But hey. (Hey it worked!) I wanted to write. Sore throat is definitely on the mend. Yesterday I had to get up and seek painkillers in order to sleep. This morning I felt OK when I woke up. Not that that lasted, and I have taken some now. But hey. It's better than yesterday!! Always good.
What if money didn't matter - Alan Watts from Evoke & Evolve on Vimeo.
Last night, and for a few days actually m since I watched this video again. I am going to have to find it now..... (found it!! its here now) About what won of you do if money didn't matter. It's a good question. I thought I would sped a bit of time writing what it was that I liked to actually spend my time doing. I was surprised actually as I came up with a list of things that I am doing.
Make Art
Make things
Going on art retreats
Cooking good food
Yoga
Getting involved in cool rejects
Meeting interesting people
Blogging
Hanging out with Bub
Travelling and visiting friends (ok I need to do more of this one )
Working on building a stylish wardrobe and having a nicely decorated home
Local baby sales
Art workshops
Supporting causes I believe in
Being greener
I can say that in all of these things I could do more. But it was deeply reassuring that I am. O the right track. These are the ways I enjoy spending my time, and I would enjoy spending perhaps more of my time doing these things if I were richer. But I wouldn't change any of it. Perhaps I would travel more, hire a cleaner, pay people to help me do up my house, or I won ld go on more art retreats, yoga holidays, have a bigger art studio, get solar heating etc. but its all just more of what I am doing already. I am actually on the right track for me.
Having said that. This morning I read this.... Post from Gypsy Love Cafe, and felt really inspired. So there is some part of me that also would pick up and take off and live a wild and feral life, doing yoga and art and finding my tribe. Living outside for a while. In the sunshine. So. Maybe that dream needs a little injection of practical action!!

I cant imagine not needing money. Without this you would need purpose as well as activities so I think that making life better for others would suddenly fill up a lot more space. Good, thought provoking stuff.
