Blessed

I feel so grateful to be here.I feel at the whim of life right now but I thought to remember my thoughts from yesterday 


‘That my philosophy and life’s work are my consolation’ I may have to go against my nature at times to get things done but I can keep the faith and be grateful and know my philosophy is sound.

I don’t know if this is common but during service and then during the meal reading, I find myself connected to what’s happening and then going off into my own world and worries. Back and forth…Self managing and habitual troubles… memories. Grateful it’s not so tornenting today.
I’m breathing through it and getting on with the day. I need to go to work soon.

Keep breathing through the anxiety. It’s hard to focus if we get ourselves lost in things that are not happening but you anticipate unknowns.

It’s good to keep a focus on NOT catastrophizing, and it’s good to articulate where anxiety rules.

Sending a big hug!
