I didn’t know that about Narnia! I agree, behind the scenes glimpses into an author’s mind are wonderful. Thanks for visiting, Liana.

It makes me think of Narnia, which began with the image of a faun under a lamppost.

Yes, sometimes we butt our heads needlessly against what life’s telling us. We forget that we don’t have to fight against *everything*.

I agree there are cycles and seasons and it is easier and more productive to just flow with it than fight it. Sometimes our head tells us we need to do a certain thing, but life ushers us in a different direction and we only make ourselves miserable fighting it.

That blurb for Rainbird sounds fascinating.

Too often our perspectives are shaped by the industrial processes of mass-production and efficiency, instead of the biological processes of dormancy, growth, and change.

Thanks to both Ellen and Rabia :) I also appreciated your insight about “seasons”–there are times when it seems you can’t produce another word, and times when the keys just won’t type fast enough. Lately I’ve been learning that both are OK. Thanks for the affirmation :)
