Wear gratitude like a cloak and it will feed every corner of your life - Rumi
This week I was very busy at work and at times I felt really stressed.
While I had an online meeting with a co-worker, I noticed a lot of anger inside me.
And despite feeling great, excited, and grateful at times.
I noticed the foundation of my mind is negative.
I could see my selfishness a bit more and that I am afraid to give.
I could see how I protect myself.
I could see my behaviour I thought was 100% right was actually 100% wrong.
The beauty of seeing my dark side is that I can appreciate the world more clearly.
Many great little things happened this week:
Grateful morning exercise
Morning sunlight piercing through the winter trees
Beautiful clear days
I received a meal plan with new ideas to try (including overnight oats! Yum)
Ability to be with people
Ability to listen to other people I couldn't accept in the past
Truly enjoying being together over a meal
Maybe the greatest thing I have noticed recently, is the ability to listen to other people.
And once I actually listen, I learn things I never knew and feel closer to reality.
