OGT DAILY Day Two Hundred and Fifty Five MEDIUM

Scanning through a magazine today I came across this word and thought it was referring to the intermediary between this world and that of the spirits.  Come to realize it was referring to the size of a coffee served up by a barista. 

Medium is the size in between.  Not too big.   Not too small like the Three Bears.  Medium is how we have our steak when we don't want it rare or burnt.  It's a place where we stand when we are in the middle of things.  It is medium which holds the pigment with which I paint.   The psychic holds the place between us and those who have passed.    It seems average.  Neither this nor that.   But it can be a place of centering and calm.



In Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) they speak of the middle path; the ability to hold two extreme at the same time; to contain ambivalence.   A healing ability for those who live their lives in extremes.

So if you ask me, I'll have the medium.
