A life in threes

Category: going forward

Good advice.

While you live, shine.

Let nothing trouble you.

Life is only too short, and time takes its toll.

– the epitaph of Seikilos

I Am.

It’s been quite an emotional rollercoaster for me today.

  • Relationship issues.
  • Devotional issues.
  • Devotional relationship issues.  (Though in the interest of trying to remain positive hasn’t been all bad…it simply involves some work about which I’ve been hesitant to finish, and the overwhelming sense of being emotionally drained in doing it.)

Upside, I got a good walk in lovely cool weather.  Downside, getting caught in a torrential downpour and now I feel generally achy.

Upside, I did enjoy a lovely text conversation with a dear friend today, and it meant so much to me…you don’t even know 🙂  Downside, none 🙂

 

I think that this is an apt song for today.  Though its set in a minor key, the message strikes me as positive overall — which was so like the day itself:

Lessons.

Big things, little things.

Well, it’s been a mix this last week or so, but I got through.

(Because, you see, I’ve got a 100% success rate of getting through increments of several days….and so do you!)

Here are some big things:

– Broken appliances were fixed!

– Personal computer was upgraded to Windows 10!

– Connections were made between seemingly unrelated doxas!

And most important of all…

-Barring that one creepy hang-up call I received on Thursday afternoon,  I had a quiet and blissfully uneventful weekend.

And here are some little things:

– My new ankle bracelet broke for the third time this week.  Either I don’t know how to make an ankle bracelet properly, or…I dunno, I really don’t know how to make an ankle bracelet properly.

-School is getting ready to start up again.  Where did my lovely summer go?

– I perfected my barbecue sauce recipe.  🙂
