I've been thinking about doors and windows in life. I've also been thinking about the concept of steeping. Sometimes before one can open a door or window in life one needs to have a cup of tea and let it steep for a while - metaphorically speaking. Plunging into some direction without this thought process is sometimes effort put into the wrong direction, but steeping allows us to consider where we are and how we want to go forward. I think I'm steeping today.
