The murky, mucky middle is where the magic takes place.
Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday with questions carefully chosen to help you collect stories in the oral tradition or spark your own writing. Either way, you'll say, "Thanks for the memories."
Some days I feel as if I’ve been in the churn forever; like I’m swishing around in Life’s great washing machine and haven’t yet gotten to the final spin cycle.
This is ‘process,’ all the steps that have to take place before some outcome can happen.
Process can feel like the mucky murky middle. But just like we need space between notes to hear the music, we need the in-between spaces where it might appear that not much, if anything, is happening except that we feel uncertain, unsettled, maybe groundless. And yet mucky, murky in-between middle of process is exactly where the magic happens as long as we are willing to wait and believe.
Story Prompt: What’s your experience of process? Share that story!
Practical Tip: The magic of stories is also in the sharing. If you wish share your story with someone or something. All that matters is you have a story.
This is the place to thrive together. Come for the stories - stay for the magic. Speaking of magic, I hope you’ll subscribe, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!
