Throughout life, the two most futile emotions are guilt for what has been done and worry about what might be done. Wayne Dyer
How much time do you spend obsessing about what might happen? How many times have you relieved a past event in your head, beating yourself up more and more as you replay it? I don’t know anything about either one of these emotions. OK maybe a little bit ;) When I read the quote I put it aside and was resistant about posting it. Maybe it was striking a cord with me and I didn’t want to look at it. When I am living in my worry I certainly don’t think there is another way through other than time. This one is tough for me and almost hard to write about because it is such a part of me. I know how to white knuckle through something knowing that I will come out the other end. I have accepted struggle as something that is natural. This is what I want to focus on.
I will give myself credit for being calmer and holding on to less but I am still in struggle when it comes to moments in my life where peace is not easily attainable. How do you have peace in the face of inner turmoil? I know I am getting to some good stuff. It feels messy which is hard for me because I like being able to define something and put it in a nice and tidy package. I am embracing this time and grateful for this moment to explore it.
