Get it on paper.

I have a few passions/obsessions in life, one of which is making lists.  At some point I will share some of my other passions in more detail, but I don't want to get off topic here...Today, I found a list scribbled in green pen in the back of a book I finished reading more than 2 years ago. It made me laugh and then almost cry--As I read through it, I remembered the emotions I was feeling back then.  This will sound terribly corny, but lists are my personal poetry--when and how they are written are equally as expressive as the topic being pondered.

What is your form of expression?  Music, travel, writing, exercise?

Here's a (short) list of some of my favorite things:

--IPA's
--Dogs
--Trail Running
--Bodyboarding
--My Family
--Flip-flops
--The silence on a warm summer evening.
--Fall Rain.


It's incredible how therapeutic writing lists can be.  In fact, this post would have been completed 5 minutes sooner if I hadn't started daydreaming about the Fall.
