WILL ANYONE WRITE ABOUT BLOGGING?
Is it too tense, driven, competitive or anxiety-producing to qualify as a past- time that soothes, refreshes and relaxes and can I lull you gently with it, sit in nature and rest with you? I’m not so grandiose to think that Hayes Spencer will even notice. It’s just that I have an ornery streak and when asked to relax that’s when I really get going!
I’ll give it “invigorating” and “challenging” and it often puts me to sleep right at my computer. Does that count? Then too, one of my blogs is “Relief–Refreshing,” which does calm and refresh. Now I’d better get over to it quick before I get stressed thinking about breaking the rules! (Or whether I’m going to goof up again trying to post to Dverse,)

Ha.. yes I had to correct your link again, no worries it’s a pleasure. Sometimes blogging to relax is a bit of an oxymoron though… it can be quite stressful

I copied my permalink with only the poem on the page and pasted on Mr. Linky. What did I do wrong? I kiss the hem of your toga.

Love your haibun Nan. If you didn’t realise, you did link up successfully. I love the chatty way in it was done. Your first paragraph draws one right in and the comfortable, friendly chat throughout is humorous. The haiku is perfect.

I find that the more I TRY to concentrate, the harder it is. Relaxations needs a bit of passivity. Loved the haiku.
