I reflect on my day and am pleasantly calm. I heard my van could use about $900 in repair...but it still runs today. Neither high nor low...simply information. This calmness I used to think was ignorance, but the more I look at it and the more I feel it...I truly believe it is simply information. That information doesn't need to have a traumatic impact on my relationships, it need not interfere with my responsibilities, and it really doesn't need to be given power over me. It is simply information.
And if someone looks at me and shakes their head and chuckles a sarcastic chuckle and thinks...oh how naive. Well that person was me at one time and when I look at that person than and this person now...I will tell you, the person today knows what happiness feels like.
Dear Lord-may I take comfort in remembering this feeling the next time I feel like I have no one or nothing.
