Day 66 and 67, September 27, 2016 @8:48 am
I’m attempting to do the great turnaround this morning – doing the ‘work’ of Byron Katie. I’m asking questions, seeking their validity and seeing if there is another way of seeing. I am not happy in this moment of seeing the world half empty. It is the morning after the great debate of last night between Hiliary Clinton and Donald Trump. The world I held my breath, waiting to hear how the Donald will speak. I am sad to see a world where such a person can become a presidential candidate.
I’m coming to this space a little earlier, to change and shake off this feeling. The world hasn’t changed that much overnight. It is the way I’m seeing/feeling. One affects the other. One invokes different visions of the glass half full or empty. Can I do a switch around? And which one is true? I’m having a problem with truths. I tend to be black and white, literal and no gives. But I see the literal/absolute way brings me no happiness. I’m swaying, changing like the autumn leaves. I’m dropping/letting go the things that don’t serve me. They’re dropping slowly like teardrops. Afterall, change does hurt. It’s not a shame to cry.
Have you cried today? Is your world half empty or full? I am going to fill up now.
