Week 11/12: MKE and Me...Wow look at that!

The last two weeks have been a emotional roller coaster. We took in a homeless women in transition, as her story unfolded it added stress to my home in the differences of how we felt the situation should be handled. I can not count the number of mental resets but in the process I found the best course of action was to remain silent unless I could speak with love in a calm and genuinely gentle manner. “I GREET THIS DAY WITH LOVE IN MY HEART” It wasn’t easy as the situations and plans didn’t play out as intended on multiple days. I wasn’t comfortable with the idea of leaving my family alone with this women in our home when work was taking me away for a week. Instead of adding tension to the situation I just found trust and faith it would work out for the best. By the time I called home to check in after my first day of meetings...the universe had taken care of my concerns. The young lady had been transitioned to a more permanent space and my family was safe and sound.

“I persist until I succeed” what a timely message in Scroll III... during the exercise of reducing my DMP to one sentence I was continuing to struggle with how I felt about some elements. I was fortunate that I had a conversation with my big brother Jimmie.in the course of our nearly 2hr phone call at some point he helped put a laser like focus on a point I had been overlooking. In short I things I have to give up to succeed aren’t as complicated as I was making them.... it’s just as simple (I did not say easy) as giving up my own BS that narrative of I am not good enough (due to my past) I have to forgive myself and know I am worthy of the love I share. I am whole, I am a survivor and not my illness.
