keeping motivated

Last night's service went well. Now I am waiting for morning meal


which is happening a little later than usual- at 11am -


I took a shower and dressed.


I had no real motivation for anything - I didn't feel sad or out of control.


I just felt nothing really. I started to think this was a sign of something


greater (or lesser) within me, that meant a pathology or just that I am something less...


and then I remembered thank god! that I was pathologizing and that I just need


to walk myself through the moment and motivate myself and think about


what I want to achieve and carry myself through it- just like ask "what do I need to get


done today - and what would I like to do with this moment of peace and positivity.


. I'll go into Frederick after morning meal and do 


a couple of errands. There's so much positivity to latch onto


instead of putting a rubber stamp of 'less than' on myself.


Have a great day you guys! Keep up the pumpitude!

Reading this, it felt like you caught yourself before turning neutrality into judgment, and chose how you wanted to move through the moment instead. That’s a powerful shift! Sometimes peace doesn’t announce itself; it just shows up quietly, and later we learn how to recognize it again.

I am honored to be a witness to your journey! hugs

I'm glad you're able to find the positivity to latch onto. Years ago, I went on a bicycle trip to Frederick. Great downtown area! I loved strolling along the canal in their Carroll Creek Linear Park - I think that's what it's called.

Have a marvelous Monday. Hugs.
