Heather - you are wonderful!
Thank you Bubba, I just spent two - three minutes absorbing what you said, once in a while a fleeting moment of wonderful is great, especially between the hard knocks of life and lawn mower maintenance books, I just ordered a new one, I hope this one is what I need.
And the laughter, not sarcasm, but genuine laughter over what I write in my diary, that which might seriously make you question what you said! But that is how it is, is it not?
I like to be recognized, thanks, my IC internal critic is not at me right now, so there is a moment of kindful acceptance and appreciation. It, IC is in a lull, right now, it's gone timid, I reprimanded it, said I'd had enough... ah, it will be back when I walk the dog, when I feel the fresh air and see the sky, it will attempt to cross me, but I am ready for it this time... I am armed with confidence, just this, one time, and that is all I need, just this moment, this is ultimately all there is, the moment we are in.
