It is crazy the vicious circle that we have to play (getting a job when we need to and being away when we can). You are so right, we can choose how we react to everything. It is so great to hear that you are aware that you have the choice on how to react to the decision. That is the pleasure of being concious. Work is a means to an end. It gets us the tools we need to survive, like money.
Congratulations on the grand baby.
Yes indeed, it seems we are students in the great school of Life. I've taken Attitude Adjustment 304 several times. Maybe I'll get a pass this time.
Oh and the new little girl has very creative Millennial parents who are into yoga, and earth-rites and all sorts of things. They named their new little daughter Aurora Shazam . No kidding. Had to slap my knees on that one.
Yes this is definitely a place to learn. I work toward the gentle lessons because I have had the harsh ones in the past. I am mindful of all the learnings so that I hopefully I only need the gentle ones. Attitude Adjustment 304 well that is a class I have taken a few times as well. Always something to learn.
There are so many different names coming out for children these days. I can say I havn't heard of that combination. I am glad she is born and all is well.
Greetings: Yes indeed, young Aurora Shazam has ties to the etherial, to the eternal and the mystic...she's related to me after all!
Anyway, we each play the parts we've been given to the best of our abilities and in observing how messy life can be we ultimately, and hopefully, find great self-compassion and in extension compassion and love for others. Blessings.
