Following on...



I am making a vow to myself. I will stop dwelling on the petty crap. If it is brought up I will politely say: "I am sorry, I do not want to know anything about that person." If I mention it to any of my friends I am telling them to shut me down straight away. Think I'll give them a code word. Something funny like poopernoogle, or polygomgizzle. Something that will make us laugh and dispel the taint of *those who shall not be named* (very Harry Potter, eh?).


I need to work harder on these:

17. Forgive everyone for everything.
18. What other people think of you is none of your business.
 
and must remember this:

24. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.
(Refer to list to live by)


Well, at least it was only a short lived fire up. Those calm blue seas sure do dowse the flames...

Though I think I might add another rule to that list.

26. Pity those who have black spots on their souls.

December 25: Gift #best09 Gwen Bell

What's a gift you gave yourself this year that has kept on giving?

Forgiveness. I forgive myself for making mistakes, I forgive myself for being swayed by others and their actions, and I forgive myself for being human. We all make mistakes, but the only tragedy is if we do not learn from them and move on. Witnessing others caught in this unending cycle of hatred and lies has made me eternally grateful to have granted myself this gift.



I actually like myself pretty much at the moment...

Merry Christmas one and all, hope it was as simple and wonderful as ours was.
