trying to deal with the dynamics

I am trying to deal with my personal 'self responsibilities' and then 


the dynamic of my family life. Things are ok but I find myself obsessing


a bit about the hierarchy that exists and trying to find the humility and grace to follow


again in my own personal life when alone (when I've come back home).


I think we all have to negotiate dynamics like this - and I just want to calmly and productively function 


with this thing. I don't know if I am being clear about this but I'll leave it


at that. I know I usually try and summarize a positive solution here on 


my journals...suffice it to say I find that humility is giving me a sense


of quiet calm, grace and encouragement to move forward with my day.


I think we all like to have things as we like them..I sincerely try not


to impose my vantage on others but unavoidably we do -  I can't


dissapear when standing there. Anyways, things are fine..


I'll go back over there to help move them to their new house.


Just had my chai latte from Starbucks. A great way to start the day!


Peace and namaste!!

Dunno. . . The line between "imposing," "inspiring" and "influencing" is fuzzy, at best. When my birds establish their ever changing "Pecking Orders," are they imposing or influencing. For certain it is in their nature to prefer being low bird in the pecking order than to bee without their flock. For certain, said pecking order changes continually and unpredictably. The high bird now will later be last.

Whether I am this hour's high bird, low bird, or just another bird, humility will help me make the most of the hour. I'm just here for the show. Pass the chicken scratch.
