[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 727134, member: 19522"] I suppose I am a bit wistful. I have overreached myself I’m afraid with coaching and tearing through my house. At this juncture, I feel I don’t have enough time to finish what I started. It can be a bit overwhelming, but I have decided that I just need to keep chipping away at things until completion. Maybe it is a way to keep my mind off of my two? Or, maybe, subconsciously I am creating my own chaos to deal with....... to replace what was, and is, at times. It was the strangest thing. Thinking that any moment a missile would blast us to oblivion. Then thinking it couldn’t be real. I prayed, a lot. Got in touch with my brother who reassured me he could not find anything on the internet that was telling of an attack, which made him doubt the alarm. I was not near any of my kids at the time and I so wished I was. It was a terrible moment, but also a great lesson to appreciate each breath. I find it curious that Japan had a similar false alarm the Tuesday after. Life is a series of adjustments.Sigh. I read a bit about Kabbalah, I confess, had no notion of it. It is very, very deep. My quote machine is not working. “Us as bearers of their conditions” I think of Eckhart Tolle, who was deeply depressed and writes of suddenly receiving a “state of bliss”, sitting on a bench all day, observing people for two years. He was before then studying for his doctorate. What did his family think of this? Did they think at the time he would be where he is now? I guess it all boils down to one simple thing, we all have our own journey and life’s lessons to learn. Yes, our suffering does not one positive thing. I am thinking on your studies, boundaries. Rain has popped by with her “new boyfriend”. Cleaned out his truck, left rubbish and piles of laundry. Comes over when I am not home. Helps herself to things. Hoku and son are quite upset. I am, and then I am not. For sure, it is a strain on my budget. I don’t want her to take advantage of me, I want her to be respectful of our home. Maybe one day I will be able to speak with her. I suppose the universe will arrange it when it is time. Copa, you sound strong and resolved to let go. It is a good thing. It does not mean we do not love them. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t be here, finding bits of ourselves and our situations in others stories. Letting go is not a straight line, like life. We live, we learn. All of us. I am glad your son has found a place. That is what we all desire, to figure out our place in this world. (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
