Today, I will practice accepting myself and my present circumstances..its funny how somedays this comes fairly easy and other days I really struggle with it.
Yesterday I was feeling out of sorts, and feeling overwhelmed..then when I got thinking about it, I realized I was doing that codie thing of picking up others feelings and taking them on myself and letting it take my peace away.
First there were two different conversations on the phone with family members who were feeling down and not too hopeful. Then I went for a visit with this lady and couldn't believe how angry she was with the world, very negative. I felt bad for her thats she hanging onto so much anger. So I felt very drained and almost was feeling angry myself...I was thinking of the prayer "Lord, make me a channel of thy peace, that where there is hatred, I may bring love..." I not really sure how to deal with someone like that.. anyway I am ok today and back to taking care of myself instead of people-pleasing...
