Worry number whatever: I'll forget to feel the sunshine if I work too hard

I began to wake up early to make food for the family so I could get to work without a guilt complex.
I began returning when the sun was fading.

Once family visited, I began to worry about all the hard work I would do to help them be at ease and still get my job done.

I made sure my child still laughed. The house still smelt lovely of food in the mornings. That we still found friends to hang out with.

Simple remedies to heavier schedules.

Now - for the "worry" that perhaps.. PERHAPS... the sun would never shine properly again.

Until someone said to me 'My dear - I have faith in you. Just listen to the Sound of music song' about 'confidence' and start doing!!

I focused hard on that thought... and slowly began to feel my son's laughter again.
Slowly realized the shackles of expectation from the self began to loosen.

The self-created images of perfection and perceived slights faded away.

I see now that all there is... is me and my intention.

Once my intention is in place - I can accept errors, inefficiencies, slip-ups and more.

"I simply remember my favorite things and then I dont feel so baaaaaaaad.' :)
