Today’s
challenge is to think about the best parts of my life while waiting in line or
at a stop light. I am done waiting in
line this season. There is one traffic
light in Myrtle Creek and one in Tri-City.
I am never at either light long enough to reflect my life. The best part of my life may be now or since
we moved to Oregon because I am not so uptight.
I miss my sibs and families, but overall, I really am happier living in
Oregon.
Day
four I had a problem. I wrote a lot of
detail about why. Roland wanted to go
shopping. I don’t like shopping. I try to remain positive. It was a Saturday in December. He wanted to
go furniture shopping. He wanted to take
Jenna with us. The idea of shopping with
both Roland and Jenna is a challenge for my emotions. There is ALWAYS tension between them when
Roland is shopping. She really didn’t
want to go and I told her she could stay home if she wanted to. I love Jenna.
I really do, but allowing her to stay home would be preventing some of the
negativity, so that counts, right?
We’d
gone to a baptism first. I had been
asked to speak about the gift of the Holy Ghost. I printed out two talks – one with pictures
for my primary student and one for me.
It was probably the best part of my day.
I think I was pleasant throughout the remainder of the day. Whatever negative feelings were inside of me
stayed there – but I don’t guess they were eliminated.
I did
well on day 5. When I do give
compliments, they really are genuine. I
gave out more compliments on day 5 than yesterday. Perhaps I should have
switched the two around. My soul purpose
for leaving the house yesterday was to have the opportunity to run into others
that I might fulfill complimenting three different people. I forgot.
On
vacation from my emotional class – though I had set up a goal to write down my
emotions each day. I’d somehow forgotten
about that too. I guess my mind really
did go on vacation . . .
