Did you even notice that when sour thoughts come, it ends up snowballing to the point where you just want to hit the 'reset' button? Yesterday was one of those days. It started with a small little issue and went completely south after that! I couldn't WAIT to go to bed last night after a day of being so mad that I was shaking and so sad that I cried! Yep, I needed a reset button!
Integrity is an important part of my life. I work really hard to teach Carly that integrity and truth are pretty much all we really have. I don't profess to be perfect but I do try to always do the right thing.
It amazes me that I get so upset that others don't see it the way I do! These people have burned me (us) before, have let us down, chewed us up and spit us out and yet I am STILL so amazed that they just keep on doing it! Can you say 'punching bag'? Oy. Yeah, we in the process of changing that...for sure!
Now here's the irony. I am reading Wayne Dyer's book 'Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life'. What a riot! This is Wayne's interpretation of the Tao Te Ching. Wonderful thoughts on how to obtain peace, balance and joy in your life! HA! Even more ironic considering the day I had yesterday!
I am going to read each verse and allow it to soak into my mind.
Below is the first verse...the last line TOTALLY speaks to me today. "And the mystery itself is the doorway to all understanding."
The Tao that can be told
is not the eternal Tao
The name that can be named
is not the eternal name.
The Tao is both named and nameless.
As nameless it is the origin of all thing;
as named it is the Mother of 10,000 things.
Ever desireless, one can see the mystery;
ever desiring, one sees only the manifestations.
And the mystery itself is the doorway
to all understanding.
