A Long, But Better Day
Today was very long, and there was work and effort occuring during most every moment of the day and evening. I was out walking by 5am. I was in my office by 8:10am. I feverishly worked on paperwork until I taught at 10:30. I worked feverishly on research from the moment I left class at 2:00pm until 4:00pm. I did a mixture of work and home related errands from 4:00 until 7:00pm. I helped out at home until I sat down at 9:30pm to eat dinner.
Yet, in the midst of it all, I worked on keeping my emotions in check and I did not feel the sadness nor the anger I have been prone to of late.
So, today was better.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
Staying busy certainly seems to keep the brain from focusing on anything but that which is in front of us.
ReplyDeleteI've had days like this and felt amazed!
ReplyDeleteGood balance of the external and internal, sir. Hope you didn't drain too much energy and a good night's rest will set you on another good day.
The weekend is coming..... :-)
