Just now I was feeling overwhelmed. Here it is 7pm at night and I haven't emptied my Inbox yet. I've got projects coming out of the kazoo! I'm irritated at my spouse - she is irritating me. Hold on! Forgiveness. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. Self-compassion for being overwhelmed. Curiosity as to whether "my spouse irritating me" is projection. And if she is irritating me why not "try some tenderness?" Thanks Awakin!!! Thanks again Wayne!!!
Pat, "...cannot be described with words (though I certainly try...)" I love that. I say that "this" is beyond words...and then there I go trying to explain it. Thanks for the reminder. Love, Tom
"In each moment I choose love or fear." I am writing this at 3:56 am...why?....because it is another opportunity to chose love over fear. Thank you for this opportunity!!!
