Have you ever had the feeling that you were settling for something in your life, but couldn't get rid of that feeling no matter how hard you tried?
I don't feel like my life is lacking, yet I feel the intense sensation that I am settling. Settling for what though, I can not say. It's not like I'm unhappy - things are going well with the studio, my classes are all in line. I don't want for anything, really, yet I feel that yearning, that draw that calls to me and makes me restless in the night.
It's a tangible thing, this sensation of settling. It keeps me up and prevents me from writing, blocking my flow and my chi and making everything seem out of place yet it is not. My life is organized. Controlled. There is little chaos anymore, not like there used to be. Anymore, anything that I do is calculated and rehearsed.
Maybe that's why I feel like I'm settling. Everything is so predictable anymore that I already know what is going to come along before it happens. Not always, but for the most part.
Let's hope that with this realization I can find something a bit more exciting to do with myself.
