I was feeling a bit down during the beginning of the day. Too many things just going around in my head without getting anywhere.
But then I started reading a book (Tyskungen, by Camilla Läckberg).
Just a few pages.
Then I put it down
looked up the writer's web site
and read a bit about her writing process.
Then I sat down and wrote down a bunch of my thoughts, managing to approach what was grinding in my head. And I managed to formulate a related question which I could send to someone.
Thus: getting input from someone else instead of just turning in place.
And it worked! I got a reply, the clean and simple kind you'd think I could have worked out for myself but of course could never have decided on for sure.
And that was enough to break the circles. I had lunch, coffee and a movie. And the world is calm, sunny and good to be in and follow.
Now I think I'll go for a little walk.
Peace.
