Setting an Intention

The words get lost sometimes. I create an entire adventure and when it's time to bring that story to life on paper it disappears. 
It's smoke. I can feel it. Taste it. It permeates the room and my soul... but.. it's gone from me. Touching it. Weaving it into something tangible is like trying to hold onto the smoke that swirls around the room.
And then I'm left~ alone. Just me and the idea of an idea that I had dancing in my head. And possibility that isn't anymore. 
 So, I stopped trying. I stopped writing. I stopped looking for my way with my words and I started using yoga as a canvas for my art. The postures my expression for the buzzing in my head. I found a quiet space and the words left me.
I am setting the intention now. The intention of words. Words and posture need not live exclusively in my life. I can have and create both. They are both a part of my whole self. I just need to make the space to produce and work with the words as well as the art that is my personal yoga. This is how I take the lessons learned off the mat into my daily life.
