I am fully in reactive mode at the moment so this post is going to be necessarily brief.   And it’s either that, or it’s not here at all.

Which it nearly wasn’t, as reactive mode is not my preferred style.  I like planning and order and structure and process and knowing what’s happening and doing what I’ve planned and crossing things off a list.

And that’s not what’s been happening around here recently.  So, what are my choices?  Hide under the duvet and come out when order has been restored?  Impractical and unrealistic on so many levels.

Or accepting the way things are, being flexible and adaptable and open to the new ideas, opportunities, experiences that are likely to occur in a less ordered world.

It’s not been easy, as I am going against a lot of my own learned behaviours, but there is enjoyment to be had and excitement in the unknown.

Order is great for getting things done.  Being flexible is great for sanity.
