Looking

​What am I looking for today? I honestly can’t say. Sleep perhaps. I spent all night fighting bad guys or being chased. I was supposed to save the world. But I could find no weapons. I ran. I hid. I climbed. I looked for anything I could use as a weapon, to no avail. I’m exhausted.
What am I looking for today? Inspiration. My brain feels empty, devoid of stories, of clever phrases, of words. Maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe ideas will fill the void.
What am I looking for today? The pictures of my father with his golf trophies. I promised my daughter I would send them to her for the memorial display she’s making. I put them somewhere very safe when I was cleaning out Dad’s stuff. For all I know, they could be in the freezer.
What am I looking for today? Energy. I have a lot to do. We’re going to Washington for our grandson’s birthday. We’re hired a house sitter for the first time ever. I feel a strong need to clean every drawer, every closet.
What am I looking for today? Time for a nap. An idea for what to make for dinner. The discipline to go to the gym. The focus to write something for my blog.
What am I looking for today? I really need to find those photos. I really need to figure out why I need to save the world when I should be sleeping. Warriors need their sleep.
