5/24: moving the tree
I didn't really move a tree. But I made a choice about formatting a pamphlet, changing where I put the text on the page. When I remember that I can make that kind of choice and that it solves a problem, I think of Lily Briscoe in Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and how she realizes she can move a tree in her painting. It's the part of To the Lighthouse that has stuck with me most since I first read it in 1986 or so.
