3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Yesterday was one that went beautifully smoothly - it's easy to be spiritual on such days! For the next couple of days, it being the Bank Holiday Weekend, things are expected to be quiet. I intend to take full advantage of this and simply be with my loved ones. It will be an opportunity to "make hay while the sun shines and address those disapproval issues by devising a counter program, and also to refocus on my objectives. Otherwise, it will be an opportunity to simply be with my loved ones.
