head space

There is a lot to be said for letting go and trusting in the process of living ones life. Of course things feel miles better when money stress is not at the forefront of my thoughts. One of the things that I have encountered is anchoring myself in the present and I hope to pass that on to my darling child. Yesterday I got a Whats App message showing me that she made her own breakfast. It was such a lovely message. One of the things that I have encouraged her to do is to find a space in her room that is just her go to spot. I bought her a gorgeous hanging crystal for Christmas, and wherever she puts it, it should occassionally bathe her in a rainbow of light. Many years ago I was in Scotland on a double decker bus and I spied a large reflection of crystals from the door of a store and loved it. Also in Scotland, I found a bootleg M&M candle that was chocolate scented that I loved. For me there are small things that make me feel comfortable, not a bunch of brick-a-brack however. This year I was looking for something and I sae how many pens. pencils and stuff that I just have laying around. I really want to go through everything and put things into catagories of keep, throw away, give away etc. I got really frustrated that I have so many things and they are just piling up in boxes. It said to me that I have so much and I should not complain about what I think I do not have. I got irritated with myself! So I decided to look at it squarely. Knowing what I have matters. I want to use what I have constructively.
