Overlook

 

My sister used to have kitten ornaments that sat on a shelf with the head, neck and front paws hanging over the edge. These ornaments were made to look as if they would topple off but actually they were very content with sitting exactly where they were.

I am similar to these kitten ornaments - I constantly overlook conversations, situations, ideas but although it would seem I have the opportunity to topple off the edge ledge and launch into the midst of things, I'm quite comfortable overlooking.

Perhaps that's why I co-ordinate a craft group though I can't/choose not to actually take part in  crafting, browse twitter but don't want put my thoughts into a #tag, have facebook set to friends only, never got into myspace and why this blog has been brewing but even as I type I convince myself without pictures it's not worth hitting publish.

And whilst I am busy watching on the edge - others are changing their habits so overLook becomes overTook because they made a decision to move on.

Synonyms shelf (google web definitions) Do you ever feel on the edge of things? If so you'll feel at home here, well that's just the point - you won't, most likely you'll feel like an outsider looking in, on the edge, not really part of the action. But that's fine. I reside on the edge of almost every part of my life. And there is much to explore, learn, grow, do and be on the edge of things, so I am learning to be happy and with an accepted purpose on the edges and here on the edge ledge. You are welcome to be here too. Rachel
