a different day Gloriana Hallelujah :)
It's the start to another day...So grateful ...a day to start just
doing what I need to do...
Woke up this morning early (though I have the day off from work) and then
I played with Blue and watched some PBS.
I dressed and went and got a coffee at Starbucks. Came home
and played with Blue and fed him and now I am drinking my coffee
and am sitting here at the kitchen counter writing this journal.
Yesterday was a day of rising and falling moods and it forced me
to change a bit - think hard - adjust - and just deal with the issues -
It's strange to put my feelings in this cyber space but I've become
habituated to it - and I feel like a compulsion to do it. But perhaps it's
a good thing - and just a way of taking care in a positive way.
I'll try not to use it as an avoidant habit to get on with my life stuff...
I won't get down on myself.
I was really struggling with myself with some uncomfortable feelings yesterday.
About my value and about my upset.
But I was determined to seek out my value somewhere else than the place I was
initially seeking it out and feeling thwarted by. That helped and also motivated me.
Now the day is starting - I feel kind of different than I felt in past days - but
I suppose what I can make of that is just to accept it - and move on carefully
and judiciously - to just make it a good day.
Sending peace and good vibes out there...Pre-Thanksgiving good wishes!

You make me go, hm-m-m-m. . . quite allot, Markus Questionarius. "Seeking out my value." is the hm-m-m-m of the day. I have never considered the concept before --at least not in those words-- and I can't quite decide if I should translate that to self-esteem, control or validation.
Dunno, but I do know that the older I get, the easier it seems to be getting to be grateful for each day, regardless of its flavor, and even more grateful when I find the strength to get up and participate in the day. On the days I can't find the strength and/or interest to participate, I still feel the value of just appreciating. Every day is Thanksgiving for me.
