a Reminder

There are some wonderful shows only seen here in Canada on the Food Network. For example a show focusing on well known cooks and chefs in their own words. Today, Madhur Jaffrey. That, and a reminder to me of Braziers, and the experiences had there. What exactly is the reminder? I suppose the simplicity, of spending the time to enjoy what you know, as well as good food, good conversation and a reminder to be gentle with yourself.
Yesterday and maybe for a bit of time to come, as long as I choose not to use anger to solve what I see as an afronting letter from my husband yesterday.
It is odd, because the letter was not filled with anything new. it was just everything about all of these known things brought up at the same time. or moreso, the tone of the letter and the fact that no new view of any positive outcome was forwarded.
I was so upset and I began to write in that frame of mind and then stopped. I knew that it would not be wise to write something reactionary.
Being away from everything I know has been a challenge, but one that I take in stride. My class yesteray went extremely well, and doing my home-work today went extremely well also. I use my trips to and from my class to focus my energy, and I want to learn Tai -Chi. I know that that shall also help me focus.
What I do know is that I have no time to do things like lay blame or feel regret.
I am still looking for a job and I am mindful to keep my spirits up.
Yesturday was really challenging. I saw myself getting caught up in an old pattern instead of staying in the moment.
Madhur Jaffrey ended her show by talking about loving her life and really getting everything out of her experiences.

thanks for the reminder
