10. DON’T REACT!

As you can see, I am stubborn.  The Universe has been challenging me these past few weeks and especially the last several days.  Plans changing and falling through the cracks.  Annoying people.  Obnoxious kids.  A literal pain in my right bum.  Lack of sleep. Bill collectors.  Escrow officer.  Title company.  UGH!!!!   At one point, I EXPLODED and REACTED.

IT. FELT. GOOD.

Lesson #11:  give yourself permission to let the steam out. It’s ok.  But it’s not ok to dwell.

A quote I saw today yesterday while having lunch at a deli cafe by a monster artist whose name I’ve forgotten:

“Sometimes in the race of life, people lose their sensitivity, even becoming monstrous in nature. They should be fortunate to experience an innocent moment if they can appreciate life like they did as children.”

    Feels good though sometimes to just let it out. Makes it all seem bearable and then you can pick up and begin again. Love you.

    Patience, patience, and even more patience. Not easy, thats why we need the practice and challenge of it I guess.
