...having a blah day...
there's tension in the house where we're staying... too many people, not enough space, no privacy, teenage boy stuff going on, family struggling with change also...
And...
waiting for court decision...
And...
no idea how to fund the next step away from here, whether it's to stay in the US or go back to Oz...
And...
boring female issues - am in tail end of peri-menopause, body's trying to menstruate and feel like crap, with backache from sleeping on couch too long, and sore, stiff joints from drinking too much coffee, eating too late each evening and sitting around too much...
And...
finding this change time in the external world hard to take - really weird feeling we're living in revolutionary times and knowing that things will get much worse before they get better... feel sad and mad and frustrated all at the same time...
And...
feeling everyone's angst and resistance...
And...
fed up with feeling pessimistic and negative...
"If you're experiencing a difficult time in life, you'll need to bolster your feelings of happiness before you can work on your challenges.
It might seem as if the reverse were true.
But by nourishing yourself with happiness first, you lay the groundwork to address your pain."
