Theme – Get Over It

 All of life is suffering. I talked about this in a video this week. We all have our shit> I've got lots of past heartache and sorrow. I've got present as well - such as the Princesses. But, I get "Get Over It." This is not to say it doesn't hurt or that I don't think about these things. I think about The Princesses at least once a day. What I don't do is live in those thoughts and feelings. I let them play as long as they need. Then I let them go. Sometimes they play longer than I think is necessary so I will then just stop myself. Either way, the thought/feeling stream ends the same. I love them. I bless them. I cover them in whit light and I let them go. I "Get Over It." Past trauma and scars are in the past. They only matter today if you allow them to. Triggers and flaws are part of you but they do not define you. It takes work. It never ends. You never really "Get Over It" you just stop letting it defeat you.

Lesson – Don't Make it More Than it Is

 'Big' could have been a Theme this week. this Lesson was originally "Don't Make it Bigger Than it is." Big just seems to be how we view things, Big problems. Big moments. Big accomplishments. Big homes. Big just seems to be the way we think. The contrary side to this is that we make things that happen in our lives..."big." We put so much weight on everything from accomplishment to loss. Things have importance and significance, of course. But we can often give them more than they need. We hang on. We worry. We get "proud." Whatever the case maybe.

Observation – It's not the Big Things

 We mark life by big moments - graduations, promotions, Marriages. Publishing a paper. So on and so forth. We mark our Goals the same way. We put such focus and emphasis on the big accomplishments, the big hurdles. We take all the little things - the little efforts and steps and successes - for granted. They don't ever seem to get the same recognition and praise. But it is all of those little things that create the big ones. ON their own they seem minute. But they gather and merge and grow and build. They are the base of your success. Building a house is nothing without a proper foundation.

The Post

Hi. I see you t here. [You know who you are.]

The past two weeks have been a wild ride.

Nothing spectacular happened. They have just been busy and active - across the board. It wasn't chaotic. Quite the opposite really. It was just very active. It was intense.

I saw it coming. I talked about it in videos. Maybe I was ready for it [mentally, at least.]

But I am through it now. I am still dealing with some aftershock but, by and large, this week is very different than last week. Of course, this may have something to do with the fact that we had [what I believe to be] a very unique Blue Moon in May. The first Full Moon was on the first day of the month and the second one fell on the last day. I don't know that I have ever seen that before. I'm not saying it hasn't happened. Truly, I am but a casual observer of astrology. A Blue Moon like this just seems a thing that would stand out to me. [Much like it is right now.]

Whatever it was, I feel much calmer, more balanced and in touch.

I'm feeling ready for June. I've tweaked enough projects into place that I should soon see some completion. I have found the rhythm of my routines. I'm still learning to move to them but I have at least found them.

I have outlasted the financial storm. May was the roughest month. [From a budget perspective.] I was running streaks of red numbers in more than one week. It held that way up to the last week. In reality, I never hit negatives but it was certainly tight. Very tight. In fact, this past Sunday was the first time since returning to work a year ago that I HAD to cash out my apps in order to get over the hump. I do not foresee it again anytime soon.

May got so tough that I actually drained all of my lil extra funds down to $0. Yet, here we are on the 2nd day of June and Cashapp is back up to $73 and by Thursday afternoon there will be $25 in my wallet, $20 in the special fund and $20 in the box. My system is whole once more and from there it is just growth.

For now, it is all up to me. I must stay focused enough to get the jobs done. I cannot overburden nor over commit myself. But I must be determined to get things done, keep my schedules, follow my routines, implement the changes.

Commitment

The 8th and final spoke of The Wheel.

My June is mapped out [for the moment.] I have looked ahead to all of my finances, needs, schedules, obligations. There is plenty there but it is more balanced and spread out than May was. So, again, as long as I keep my eye on the ball [except for when I don't] there is no reason I cannot manage it and be ready to face July even stronger.

I cannot stress enough, Fellow Travelers - if you read the blog you really should watch the videos.
