BDWS #6

I was sick yesterday and because of the three day weekend, I have not posted on this for a while now. I can assure you that I had/have 3 papers due this week and thus had a lot of homework over the weekend. I tried writing mindfully in some spots and reading mindfully is always a hard task. Today however, I edited mindfully. Before I made a mark I asked why I was making it. Why I was changing a word. Which lead to questions about the structure of sentences and then to the foundation of languages. As you can see i got distracted.
I returned my focus to the subject at hand. Editing mindfully. Interestingly enough I discovered that once I stopped asking "why" all the time I became more focused on the act of editing and it was easier to concentrate.
