Today I'm faced with a similar situation, but for different reasons. I don't want to write any more about the events in New York and Washington. I want to leave them all alone for a few days and let thing happen as they are going to happen. But then, to write about things going on in everyday life seems so ... trivial.      Do I talk about Brigid's struggle with the idea of carrying an umbrella to school? Do I talk about the work I'm doing on this book? Do I talk about the cat? Lisa's filling that needs replaced?      On a "normal" day, these are the things I would think about as I sat down here to scribble for my ten or fifteen minutes.      Today I'm still trying to get up my energy for them.                1/24/30: Day 19 Delving back into the book. Lisa comments have been stewing, and I've decided to split it into two sections. So this morning, I broke everything apart, and began working on section 1. Progress was made. I'm happy with it. The real work with section 1 starts in a few days, though. Total writing time: 1:45 E-Mail Daily Persistence is © Ron Collins
