Be happy

All my goals and activities are geared towards achieving this one single goal.Hence, I am removing this from the list but keep on working on it through achieving other goals.

My work makes me happy.So does acting & French.I calld this guy I used to know.But talking to him gives me such a sense of vacuity on htat side.Nothingness.porquois? je ne sais pas.

Either everything is important & meaningful, or nothing is.In course of daily life, even while accomplishing goals or running to complete simple to-do list, I’ve felt as if I am missing something important that I was supposed to do or be somewhere else I was meant to be.Today, while going to this silly party,iit came to me.Every experience is as it should be.I am doing/being/experiencing/learning what I was meant to- there is nowhere else but this life, this moment to be lived in its entirety.How simple!I wish to hold this thought.

“The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play.”

The awful lady who lives rent free in my head
She who doesnt let me live in peace.
I wish I could muffle her, gag her her or strangle her even.
When I look at my shiny painted nails, she tells me I they dont look nice because I havent had a proper manicure.
She doesn’t let me rest in peace after I’ve refused a request,
telling me how selfish I am.
And I am tired of arguing with her all the time now
so I just ignore her,
hoping she’d just shut up.
Why does she hate me so much???

Watching movies alone can be addictive.Once you realise u neednt wait for someone to accompany u to watch something that seems inetesting & u can pay more attention to it.I saw ‘La grand seduction’ at AF on sun.Fantabulous.I havent laughed this much in ages,it was sooo funny.

Got jewelry out of locker.I am very absent minded as i’ve avoided wearing it for years.But especially theses days I need concrete reminders of my abundant wealth, hence I am wearing a my nice, understated pieces.It makes me look good & I feel great! why keep it all stashed in the bank locker at all times?

I forgot the link but it had words honolulu army training in it someplace(dead tired rt now) Very good advice.I must print it out & paste it someplace.

I called a friend who was my colleague in the school where I worked.She mentioned that she was thankful to me for helping her make her mind about quitting, something she wanted to do since a long time.My decision gave her power.The way we all are connected is very interesting.

Organising makes me happy,as does epilating.Chaos may reign in the world outside.I might not be able to control anyhting else- this I can,& unless its in order I cant think prpperly.I organised ALL my clothes(inspite of ridding myself of 17 kilos of them, I still have not only enough but surplus!In order to prepare for my busy working period coming up soon,I got every thing out, weeded some more, kept some in the closet, folded & kept away woolies & thoroughly examined each article for its utility & possible uses.That took all day and made me supremely happy!Topmost & bottom shelves of teh closet still remain, but thats my task for tomorrow.
