No Lingering Allowed

 

We all find ourselves here from time to time. And yes we are allowed the time to grieve, and cry, and piss and moan. Then comes the point we have to move on. The sorrow will be a part of us always, and shapes the way we move forward, but move forward we must.

The mirror has two faces

An old childhood trauma has resurfaced in my awareness; something I thought I had have forgiven and reframed in my memories. A somewhat casual remark the other day by a family member triggered the awareness that the incident indeed is not forgotten, or reframed, or released. It still hurts and is still, these fifty-seven years later upsetting.  The balance I thought I had secured within me is out of kilter. The mirror of my awareness has two faces.

Sun-day

 

Hopeful that the drawing of The Sun today is an omen for a turn for the good with this little cold that wants to take hold.  Though chilly with a forecast in the low forties today, there should be clear and sunny skies. I think I will find a spot by the window and soak up those lovely rays and hope they chase away the sniffles.

Meow to Roar

 

Today may be a really good day to gather myself and my some new ideas and thoughts that have begun to take hold and figure out what needs to happen next. Focus that great energy of new thought patterns and put some emotional ump behind them and sort out the details. The new year is within sight. 

Baby kitties can become big wonderful cats.

Small ideas can blossom into wonderful futures.

Possibilities

 

There are times we can become so focused, enchanted with the way things are, we forget to be open to the all possibilities that are around us. The World as well as ourselves are a wonder worth exploring. I am looking forward to my day with all the promises it offers.

Bright Blessings

 

Today I am Thankful.

Most days I am. Every little thing I am going to try to be thankful today. It is raining, so I am very thankful it is not snow. I am going to my brother's place, for Thanksgiving dinner and I am thankful for family time and all the bounty on his table, and I don't have to cook a bit of it. My sister-in-law won't allow me any time in her kitchen so I am thankful I don't have to do dishes.  There is Kitty. Electricity to heat my home, Lights to read by and to warm the water at the ready at the sink. Thankfully there are those that work at the companies that get the electricity and water delivered to my home. Clothes and cute socks for my feet. A refrigerator and shelves with food handy for my taking. Customers that chose me to help them with their decision to move, so I have currency to take care of my home and needs. So much more; the list spirals out into eternity.   Happy Thanksgiving

Last night, Today

 

I had an uncomfortable, reveling two-part dream last night. There was betrayal of trust, loss of faith, and the second-part, retribution. Watching the reel of the dream I realized all the participants were supposed to be facets of me. The little things I do to myself that undermine me, and then the mind revealing thoughts of how I punish myself with the antics I participate in, mostly in my thoughts. I wonder if indeed, I have been my own best and worst enemy, per se?  I guess I can dwell on all those missteps and continue to focus on regret or for once in all just let it go and move on. A valuable lesson, especially as I am getting to old to linger in regret. Get up, shake it off, lesson learned, move on.
