divine self

Started my spiritual class last night in directing new focus inward.

Excited as there are many changes right now.

Rather than planning or attending activities, I am scaling back in order to listen to my inner self.

My first assignments were to meditate and to think of eight things that I am glad about my life.

Today's eight:
1. family - parents and sibs
2. public transportation/my muni pass
3. healthy relationship with fear: knowing when to follow fear (safety) and when to overcome fear (seeking challenges)
4. my health
5. my career - finally embracing it completely
6. San Francisco - a lifetime affair
7. having been thoroughly loved
8. having loved so much

Explaining ourselves

Life is magical right now w/perfect balance of free spirit and structure.

When I was younger, I simply followed my gut in every aspect of life.

As I discovered the necessity of rules, I knew that being left-brained wasn't me either.

Finally, being able to choose when to let go and when to be disciplined is liberating.

True, happiness is fleeting, but I have never been happier.
