3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Given the opportunity to skip the last two hours off shift 1 of the Weekend Job, despite not being economically prudent, I grabbed it with both hands - that's an extra 2 hours of quality life! Missus was delighted, especially since, with Son off bowling for the evening, she could have me satisfy her libido.

The good hassle-free run at the Weekend Job continues, and with Son having some much-needed social time and patching things up with an old friend, it was a good Friday for the Blonder family! As is my custom I express profound thanks to the Universe.

With Saturdays being pre-set in terms of activity, and my mind in a good place, today I will be focused on raising my consciousness, submitting to my intuition, keeping grounded and enjoying internal silence.

9. ZEN WISDOM
Everything passes. Both soaring joys and crushing sorrows fade away like a dream. However, the knowledge of having lived one’s life to the fullest never disappears.
