34. A Writing Practice to Help You Meet Yourself

I've found real magic in thinking on the page in the last year. I'd love for more people to experience this with me.

"When I sit down to write, the meadow is still engulfed in darkness under a sky where satellites pass by, one after the other. My thoughts are flighty and shapeless, like dreams; they morph as I approach them. But when I open my notebook and write, it is as if I pin my thoughts to the table. I can examine them." - Henrik Karlson
