3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION

Yesterday was one of those days that got better as it went on! The frustrations of having the other two "under my feet", restricting my ability to get stuff done and other personal activities. If you are one of the regular dozen-or-so regular readers of this blog you will know that I'm not one to hold back anything. Consequently I was the living definition of "passive-aggressive" in the morning. 

Son and Missus, bless them, hadn't of course done anything wrong, they were just in-the-way. Neither of them are equipped with the necessary knowledge to know how to best respond to me when I am out-of-sorts, because after all Son is still a teen and Missus is clinically psychotic, albeit well-managed. The only solace they had to offer was more space.

Fortunately, a little space proved enough. After some much-needed "me time" and an hour-or-so of meditation, during which I had a vivid dream about living in a Central European mountain village, I was a different person - balance and Higher Consciousness returned. In short I followed my own therapy/philosophy - take care of the primal needs as priority to function efficiently.

Being more geared-up to having the others around in the afternoon/evening, all was well thereafter - I even had a rare quality time with Son. With clients to see today and being generally better-prepared for the circumstances, a fulfilling day is expected.
