What are you in the process of balancing?

Balancing isn't the right word.  I am very aware that my perspective currently is weighted far too heavily in looking backward, reflecting.  It doesn't help that my hobbie is picture-keeping and scrapbooking.  In the name of organizing them, I fondle old pictures of simpler times, when I was clear about my direction and what I was striving for.  If you had asked me then I might not have realized I was clear.  I probably thought I was just a gerbil on a wheel. (and maybe that IS a more accurate description) From here, though, it looks like I had purpose.

So, here I am. Knowing in my head the healthy perspective is to be in the right-this-moment-NOW.  To be looking forward, scanning, reflecting enough to bring into focus where the hell I'm going. (Because we all have to be going somewhere, don't we? )

Still, this morning I scanned more pictures for my hall gallery where I'm hanging images of love to comfort me. The two for this morning were....

 and this one

Awww, they make me smile. 

So, balancing my perspective to be more NOW and forward facing is the name of the game for me currently.  But maybe I needn't try to identify where I'm going.  I could just BE. And, as Maureen says, just let it come up and reveal itself.  Patience. Observe when I'm filling myself with "shoulds", be compassionate and bottom-line, forgive myself  for my imperfections.

Yeah.
