another day, another mental wrong turn - but there's a peace to it this time

I'm weary mentally for having woke up with my mind


firing away at me in a way that I could not stay on top of.


Call it creativity or human animal nature. All sorts of mental wrong turns ensued.


My mind undermines and then it seems like every day I am working away at some thought or problem to solve, which takes me away from the life in front of me. A wisdom factory on an individual scale.


I feel too preoccupied and mid-wound at times as a result for the project of looking for work and other things as well, like planning

much for divertment outside of the campus.

 

Also the phone then occupies my mind so much as a kind of foster home base to ground me

from all the inner and outer distractions that then seem to keep me from dealing with my life or

just dealing with it with a major facilitator.

 

But I can turn it all on its head. Perhaps these daily ruminations are just part of 'what it's like to me be'-

rather than feeling the existential and isolating awe of seeming different and disabled and so separating me and making me vulnerable or helpless - I can chock it

all up to what I have in common with others at times and what it's like to be me too - all at once. Romance it, another day another

mental wrong turn - but we'll get there!

I’m also realizing what is human nature and knowing what derails me in terms of the human dynamics, I find my idealism in art designs.

Feeling so disappointed in the people here (monastery). God goes with me wherever I go, I don’t have to be here, I can take my spirituality with me.

Just conducted confessional with a man who complained about his life. Life’s rough for everyone, just in different packages. I thank god for my strengths and what is good in my life.
I know we all have weaknesses just in different amounts or areas

You absolutely can......take your spirituality with you! "The Temple of God is within you!"

Life is not easy for anyone. If it was, we wouldn't learn anything :-) Hugs
