Today has been long and both tough and great at the same time. But what a beautiful day anyway. The mood quite fine, thank you. Despite another press conference, despite physical pain, despite a thundering headache.
Of the irritating character that is.
With tension in the neck rather than pain, but deeply annoying nevertheless. Today, I´m definitely not amused by the thought of any ailment to conquer.
But that´s just the way life also is. I promise, it won´t affect my good spirit, my feeling of a beginning mental surplus, or my joy about being alive one more day.
However thoughtful these press conferences make me, I´m too happy to cry and too tired to laugh. So I´m probably in a petty dive temporarily because I do feel content and grateful.
Tonight, my drawing experience will center around Mjolnir, the hammer of Thor. The great Nordic god that rules throughout the year in his strongest symbol, the hammer.
It is a drawing that will play tricks on me due to its level of difficulty. But why hit the trees, when you in reality want to hit the stars? I try to challenge everything I know about drawing and try learning anew.
What a beautiful day it has been with my husband and the little wise, old dog. I even managed to do a few more chores than I have been doing for almost half the year.
We take our strict precautions when we have to face the outside world. But when we are at home, we live our lives as were we living on a desert island.
So although I sound serious and sharp from time to time, today is a beautiful day, today is worth every ache and pain, and today I need to rant about being happy and nostalgic simultaneously.
I´m happy, content, and thriving. Yet I still miss my late mother who died almost six years ago. So much has happened since, I try to think about what she would have said and done in times of trouble.
She would probably say something like, pull yourself together and fight for what you believe in, do your best every time, and remember to laugh a lot, too.
So that´s what I´m doing when I put action behind my words. I made the following note to Self today :
- Be happy when out of bed in the morning because I´m alive yet another day.
- Get my things done without being grumpy because it will only be done with will-power.
- Remember to appreciate those I want in my life in time to do just that.
- And last, but not least, to look in the mirror in the morning and remind me of these words.
- Words are only valuable when transformed into action.
And I tried it out, a perfect exercise in shadow work.
Tonight, I send everybody in the world lots of online hugs, positive Karma, and a blessing for happiness, inner peace, good health and kindness in us all.
So it is.
