I need to write something…and…I just don’t have it in me…I’m tired…I didn’t sleep…not sure why…maybe because I was up past my bedtime…as strange as it sounds…that often keeps me from falling asleep…maybe it was the tea I drank with supper…I usually don’t have caffeine at night…maybe it was the fact that I’d been stressed during the day…during Mama’s heart cath…I’m not sure…I just know that I didn’t sleep…
And…now…I’ll be going to work…tired…cranky…and…just out of sorts…and… Bertha…reminds me…I don’t have to be…I can be tired…and pleasant…I can lack sleep and feel rested…tired…cranky…out of sorts…is a choice that I make…whether I make it on a conscious level or not…
I know it’s true…I have experienced days like that…but…I’m not sure how to make the choice…
Ahhh…she reminds me…of setting the intention…
I want to feel good…
That is my desire for the day…to feel good…to appreciate…the good…the beauty…the love…around me…to find joy in the smallest things…to look through my heart’s eyes…to see others as loving and considerate…
And…interestingly…even as I write this…I am starting to feel better…I can feel the relaxation of those little stress lines between my brows…

PS…And…thankfully…Mama did well with her procedure…
Hello Jane…
Beautiful post… You are right to feel better is probably a choice we make…
Bertha is right when she reminds you “of setting the intention”…
Once you decide you want to feel good; you start to feel better.
After all it is a sort of personal choice !!!
Happy saturday my dear one,

So true…it’s always a choice…and…I did feel better after making that choice…got me through what could have been a long and miserable day!
