Rise: 0725

Set: 1650


Gibbous Moon in Gemini


Chilly and overcast


Back is a little tender this morning. Not very tired, considering the actual amount of sleep I got. 


Performed morning Devotion. A little rushed, but precisely on time. 


It is the Day After Epiphany and The Day Of Eastern Orthodox Christmas.


I thought I was setting into cleaning this morning, but it seems it was time to write. This is fine. I did state that I wanted to make writing a morning priority. 

So, by all accounts, today is the 7th day of the 0 week. 7, of course, being a number of healing and completion. [Minor levels.]


As I said last night, I have stocked the pantry and supplied the closets. Though, there will be more to get soon enough. I have a bit of gas left in The MattMobile. Just Enough to get where I am going today. However, I will have to get gas before too long. I awoke to a pending bill that I thought came later in the month. It is not critical but I should try to stay up with it. I do have a smidgeon in my accounts and a bit of cash on me [if I can find someone to write a check.] This should cover the ‘need.’ Still, there are charges coming up in a rather short amount of time. 


But we are not worried, Fellow Travellers. This is merely the State of Affairs Right This Moment and not the Fate of the Future. Today can be managed and that is all we are truly focused on presently. 


I am working at being more aware of what I am projecting into the Universe, both outwardly and what I hold in my mind. What You Feed Energy Into Grows


Words Create.


One of the things I am focusing on is not using the word need. If you noticed, the one time I did use it previously, I used my little punctuation marks. I don’t know what they’re called. The Apostrophe twins. 

You Always Have What You Need When You Need It. If our needs are always met, then there is no such thing as needing. There is only having. 


So, as I stated, this is the last day of the 0 week. It has been an intense and liberating journey thus far. I recently came across something on some social media that said eventually one begins to look forward to these debilitating and breaking experiences, because eventually one realizes that we always emerge stronger from them. I can’t say that I thought I would ever agree with that notion. This was only a few days ago. Today, I would tell you that they are absolutely true. Though this process has been very difficult and trying, though there were outbursts and outrage - for whatever reason - I feel better than I have in a very long time. 


I enjoyed whatever yesterday was. It was so very refreshing to be mobile and managing again. And, the day was all very perfect in the end. I treated it as an adventure - a mini-quest. I had a few destinations and goals. I had an inkling of a plan. But, once I left The Dormitory, I just let the day be whatever it was going to be. And, it was Divine. 


This is the number one thing we are leaving The VOid with as we emerge into week 1. I must just Let It Be. Each As It Comes.


I woke up this morning and made a pot of coffee and then set to making some cinnamon rolls as a little morning treat. Then I just kind of chilled out and played at my games a little until Hoagie left. Like I said, at that point I thought I was going to be cleaning, but this came up instead. 


Later this morning I will be heading to The Putters for a little Paw Patrol action. The Professor will be down off the mountain and the safety meeting can be had. Who knows, this little bit of social activity may yield some business rewards before the day is through. I do have these negotiations and arrangements in the works with The Professor. 


Beyond that, I do not know what today holds, nor do I see anything tomorrow or beyond. I would like to get The Dormitory cleaned. It has been too long, what with all of my dilemmas and such through the holidays. I will also need to manipulate laundry at some point. 


Other than that I will set to doing applications, crafting what is before me as I can, and just doing what I can each moment. 

Overall, I feel good. I feel ready for today and even tomorrow - despite knowing so little about either. 

So, for now, stay ‘tuned in,’ Fellow Travelers.
