3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
It's a good day to pause and reflect on a week where nothing of great significance occurred but there have been a number of minor challenges and glitches. The lesson is that unexpected glitches and challenges, big and small, will inevitably occur. it is crucial that I am accepting of this and respond to them in a measured way.

I can be pleased with my progress and accept the need to develop further, raising my focal point of consciousness to Ultimate Reality and learning to manage the character I play by observation from this point.
