One of my favorite things to do is to get lost in the streets of New York. I set no agenda. I take a train to anywhere and when the exit compels me, I resurface from underground. Then I explore. I like finding the cracks and crevices. I like finding the abandon buildings and excerpts from conversations. I like finding a sign that tells me to go one way and making the decision to go the complete opposite. I think a great thing to do when one needs inspiration, motivation, space or thinking time, is simply to GET LOST. In the lost-ing, you somehow always find your way.
When was the last time you got lost? What did you find along the way?
At A Loss is a journal/blog prompt challenge on exploring lost people, lost ideas and lost things. Its an exploration of grief, releasing, possession and just how we come to be without. This idea was created in 2011 based on this post, “LOST: To Come to Be Without.” Click on the title to read its origins. Click HERE to be directed to all of the AT A LOSS entries from 2011 and 2012.
Please keep in mind, I am currently on a 10 day silent retreat and will have absolutely NO ACCESS to any form of communication. I value your voice and your expression, I am just currently unable to be present with you. Have an incredible day.
