I just found an amazing new blog...
I'm obsessed! I can't wait to read all the tidbits.
Lately I've been struggling with finding peace in my chaos. My life is chaos...let's face it. I don't need to explain to you why...you ALL know it is :) one little post on this blog has set my mind spinning on the possibilities. I'm hooked!
a sample: "...Let me let you in on a little secret to finding peace of mind: see the glass as already broken. See, the cause of our stress, anger and irritation is that things don’t go the way we like, the way we expect them to. Think of how many times this has been true for you. And so the solution is simple: expect things to go wrong, expect things to be different than we hoped or planned, expect the unexpected to happen. And accept it."
How true is this??? The stress in my life is often because my expectations are too high and when things don't go the way I want...I am disappointed. How silly is that??? The expectations are MINE...not anyone else's. How is it fair for me to expect something of someone, not tell them, then be disappointed when they didn't read my mind...LOL Time to change my life (LOL...I'm a little dramatic but that is ok)
Now on to my day yesterday...
I survived Jury Duty!!! I wasn't sure if it would happen but I did make it through (for the WHOLE MONTH of April). My Service is complete for at least 3 years... Nothing too interesting today
Yummy fruit, granola and yogurt parfait... Mmmmmmm
Dinner was Shrimp Bruschetta from En notria...Love this place :)
Then I hit the road with Terri for a nice walk/run.
More tomorrow...
Time to find my Zen
TTFN
