We got that attitude! – 20th October 2019

My biggest lesson in the last year is something I am still in the middle of. I know some of my shortcomings after the situation at CRPAO and the lesson for me is how to deal with something like this again in the future. I am continuing to explore meditation, exercise, journaling and pulling back a little bit.

Gratitude Journal

I am so happy and grateful to have had many opportunities to smile this week. Driving to Rayong, taking photos on the beach, finding alcohol at the corner shop, meeting Kaew again, tipping Aing, our waitress at Vertigo Too, for her great personality and service, looking out across the Bangkok skyline under a full moon, drinking good beer and laughing with Lekky. Smiling every day with Amy.

I am so happy and grateful to have reasonable health that allows me to do the things that I want. Getting up at 6 am, taking a one hour flight, driving for 3 or 4 hours, getting lost, ending up at the beach to take photos of a beautiful sunset. Despite an average hotel, getting lost, bad traffic, no alcohol being served, average food and a dirty beach we stayed in great spirits throughout.

I am so happy and grateful to have such a wonderful relationship with Amy. She makes me smile most days just with her positive attitude and fun loving nature.

Undreaded courage all the time – 11th October 2019

Two minds. Thinking mind and observing mind. Separate them, recognise negative emotions, own them and let them go!

My situation: about to start a new job which may have some of the problems of the previous ones. What advice would you give to someone in this situation?

Even as I write this I can see that my worry is about something that hasn’t happened. I don’t need to think about things in this way. I think I understand how I could have coped better in my previous situation so I should be able to deal with them in the event that they do happen again. Prepare and plan carefully to do the job as best you can but do not invest so much time and effort that it completely overrides everything else.

Balance!

I am so happy and grateful this morning for having this space to sit in, the coffee I am drinking and the sun and rain for making our trees grow. I will grow with them.
